The record for this object is published by the Victoria and Albert Museum, which gives neither an acquisition credit nor an ownership history for it. Both are noted here as absent rather than filled in.
Metals, stones and any treatment are as described in the institutional record. No current laboratory report accompanies this lot, and weights are not warranted. Catalogue data for this lot is drawn from the Victoria and Albert Museum's open-access collections record (V&A open access).
Provenance
Not established. The Victoria and Albert Museum publishes the catalogue record for this object but no ownership history, and none is asserted here.
Condition
Excellent
Minor handling wear consistent with age; no material faults.
Condition reports are the house’s opinion, offered in good faith. Lots are sold as viewed; the absence of a remark does not imply the absence of a fault.
