10.28.25 - In my opinion regarding LOT: 1016 — I am not an expert on Swarovski crystal figures, the bird group is overall intact and secure, a careful UV light examination is unremarkable revealing only light adhesive at the joins consistent with manufacture, a careful visual and tactile examination reveals a slightly rough area or possible small chip at the back of the lower bird’s wings where they nearly meet, however this appears symmetrical on both sides and may be inherent to the production process, please refer to the images for clarity, the metal support exhibits only light surface wear and minor dust, and there is no apparent major loss or restoration observed, all wear appears minimal and consistent with display and gentle handling
