5.21.24-In my opinion regarding LOT: 2057-Both vases stand sturdy and are overall intact, a UV light examination is rather unremarkable showing only some a small loss/imperfection at the foot ring of one, see images, I note some inherent pitting, and light surface wear, as if they were cleaned, metal shows some spotting, patination and light wear, no major loss of enamel or missing sections noted, please see attached images for your review, I am not an expert on such pieces so please let me know should you have further questions
