Condition
Each overall good condition with scuffs and scratches commensurate with age. The stones with typical, natural eye-visible inclusions, surface-reaching fractures, and abrasions. A few minor breaks/losses to bear medicine bundles, some retained. Large bear with minor chips to ears. Carved pillar with large chip to top and a few scratches to opposite edge. Pillar likely part of a candle holder originally. Condition reports are offered as a courtesy and are typically published in Moran's catalogue or can be made available upon request. The absence of a condition report does not imply that an item is free from defects or restoration, nor does a reference to particular defects imply the absence of others. Buyers are responsible for determining to their own satisfaction the true nature and condition of any lot prior to bidding. Though buyers are not legally required to inspect lots prior to purchase, failure to do so may constitute a waiver of complaint that an item was not delivered in a condition equal to the existent condition at the auction.
