Please view & enlarge all photographs to closely inspect fine details and to determine the amount of patina, and/or wear. Most older pieces by nature normally have some degree of both and, unless severe, aren't considered damaged. I will do my best to note anything glaring or distracting. Utilize the scroll arrows beside the photos to allow yourself the opportunity to view them all. Pictures normally speak louder than words and individuals also interpret characteristics differently.

It is your responsibility to check on these costs beforehand if it is of concern to you. I have no knowledge, control of, nor responsibility for paying those at all. Beadvisedthat you may experience delivery/customs delays, package searches, or misc red tapeissues that are entirely out of my jurisdiction. I pay additional insurance and fees on the postage funds I receive that will not be reflected/listed on your shipping tags. I ship via international priority mail to protect us both - please don't ask for aless expensiverate, as I won't ship any other way.
