Updated Condition Report:

appears to be in generally good, undamaged condition; no noteworthy condition issues were observed; the bowl resonates with a nice bell tone when gently struck; some sticker labels are affixed to the underside, including Skinner's lot number and sale code; gilding along top rim edge appears to be in generally good condition, i.e, intact; the bottom gilding along the foot also appears to be in generally good condition and intact, however, at least one very tiny pinhead-size spot of overpaint splatter was observed, not of any consequence; the interior appears to be scratch free; there is wear/rubbing loss to some of the decoration, most notably, to the dark blue colored areas in the upper part of the archways on each of the outer side panels, apparently commensurate with age, use and handling
