Condition

The plates are in fair condition with no major chips, cracks, or losses that affect the overall piece. All items have crazing and wear throughout, as expected; colorations in some areas are faded, consistent with age and use. The red plate captured lower left has a line of chips to the rim. Throughout the underside, there is wear, crazing, original paint marks, original firing flaws, and discoloration as shown in the listing. There is a sticker to the underside of the plate captured lower center. None of them show a sign of restoration under UV light. Please contact us for a detailed condition report. Please note that the lack of a condition statement does not imply perfect condition. Email condition@revereauctions.com with any condition questions.
