Condition

The dolphins are in good condition with no visible chips, cracks, or losses. The dolphin captured left in the lot listing has dust collected to its surface, particularly in recessed areas. There is a light discoloration to where the horizontal dolphin meets the column. The dolphin, right in the listing, has very light wear to the marble base. Both items have wear to the underside, consistent with age and use. No visible 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.
