Condition
This work is in very good and sound condition overall. Close inspection reveals some very faint and unobtrusive craquelure in the porcelain, underneath the paint layer. There is a green surface abrasion on the yellow portion of the yellow cup and some pitting, faintly visible on the top of the yellow plate.
