Description.
On 06-Apr-22 at 16:58:35 BST, seller added the following information:
Please let us have your phone number when you order, as this may be required to arrange parcel delivery.
We do not generally point out crazing, and do not regard it as a defect worth mentioning in pieces of the age we sell, unless it is not completely noticeable in photographs and is both extensive and undiscoloured. If you have concerns as to whether a piece is crazed, please ask us.
A really lovely early 19th century hand-painted enamel box, featuring a charming picture of a young boy playing a pipe in a rural environment. Floral sprays and insects decorate the size of the box.
"X" mark to the base.
Condition.
In very good antique condition. The almost ubiquitous cracks to the enamelled sides of the object, but the central scene is undamaged.
Dimensions.
6cm in diameter
We do not offer combined postage as the figure we charge reflect the time taken to pack and source packaging material which is incredibly time-consuming. Ultimately, it is the combined price which reflects the true cost.
See our other items elsewhere on the eBay site. If you like what you see, we do have other items that are not necessarily listed and which may be of interest.
We use recycled packaging. It helps our environmental footprint, but does not necessarily look very pretty!
On 06-Apr-22 at 16:58:35 BST, seller added the following information:
Please do not pay for international items until we have delivered a postage invoice to you.
Please let us have your phone number when you order, as this may be required to arrange parcel delivery.
If the postage policy specifies that postage is included, we will send by tracked postage, rather than tracked and signed. If you wish for the latter, please let us know. There will be an additional charge which we will notify to you.
When we send by tracked alone the item will be at your risk from the point that we can prove, by means of showing a delivery confirmation, that it was delivered to your premises. Until that point, the item will be at our risk.
We are prepared to deliver all over the world, except (for obvious reasons, given the Russian state's unprovoked acts of aggression in Ukraine) to Russia.
We aim to ensure that our descriptions are absolutely accurate. Nevertheless, antique porcelain is never perfect. We use high definition photography with the aim of making the condition of any item extremely clear. Defects which are obvious in the photography we use are deemed to have been declared, even if we do not specifically refer to them in the description.
Restoration is sometimes extremely difficult to detect. We use UV light and transmitted light to check whether restoration has occurred. Sometimes, even those methodologies do not reveal restoration. If you are able, notwithstanding the definition, to show that restoration of a significant nature has occurred, we would obviously allow cancellation of the sale in such circumstances.
