Please refer to our Condition of Sales before bidding on any lot. In addition, please note that Rago stands behind any condition report and specific dates, periods or eras provided. In their absence, the object is of a doubtful period in our opinion, or made in the 19th, 20th or 21st Century. The marks and signatures on a piece do not denote a production date, dating or period unless so specified. For example, when a piece bears the mark of a 17th century reign/artist/maker, the lack of mention of an actual manufacture date in the catalog means this may well be a later reproduction. 19th century
