Purchasing information
    The condition of the lot is good to fair. There is some fraying to the woven hair, with short pieces coming loose from the main woven section. The gold head and tail have some tarnish and discolouration. The underside of the head has a file or scuff mark. Small patches of dark discolouration to the tail. Condition reports are offered as a guide only and we highly recommend inspecting any lot to satisfy yourself as to its condition.
