These items are presented/sold in "AS FOUND/SHOWN" condition. Often you will see terminology such as: Attr. (attributed to), in the manner of, like, or after. For instance, Tiffany (attr.) means that the item is attributed to being made by Tiffany but not guaranteed to be by the company's hand. All measurements are within +/- 1/2."
