A pair of 19th century Japanese brown patinated bronze bottle shaped vases, converted to electric table lamps, bases drilled and with oak octagonal plinths. 58 cm overall. CONDITION REPORT: Good condition other than the conversion and mounting with some minor marks etc. These vases are screwed to oak plinths. Having unscrewed one of the plinths it is apparent that the vases have had their bases removed and wooden blocks have been inserted into the base of the vase as an anchor point for the screws that are running up from underneath the plinth. There are no signatures visible and there is surface wear and minor scratching throughout the vases including moderate wear to the brown patina to the centre of the necks.

The base has some flake chips and corner knocks and the base underside has some shrinkage or splits in the manufacture with a flake chip to the edge, otherwise the vase is in good condition and has very minor marks to the body but nothing of any significance.
A 19th century Japanese bronze, depicting a rodent on top of a mallet, signed. Height excluding wooden plinth 20 cm, length 28 cm (see illustration). CONDITION REPORT: The surface of the bronze has some minor wear to places. The rodents tip of its tail is missing and there is damage to the cord tassels where the bronze has broken in three places and is loose but attached. The barrel section has some patches of extreme wear and the rodent is loose within its mount. There are circular wear marks the rodent has swivelled. The wooden base has wear, marks and scratches but overall is in good condition.
Two early 19th century Staffordshire lions, each raised on a rectangular plinth. Length 33 cm, height 24 cm. CONDITION REPORT: The brown lion on yellow base has a section broken, re stuck and with part missing to the rear left-hand corner. Looking to the underside of the model there is a hairline crack that emanates from this damaged area the entire width of the figure. The lion has damage to the tongue and two upper teeth. The other figure appears to have been detached from its base and re-glued all apart from the base of the tail. So what appears to have happened is that the figure has been dropped and separated from the base - you can see a break in the tail towards the lower portion just above the base section. There is damage to the two upper teeth, the tongue and the left-hand lower tooth. The base has chipping to the front left and front right corners, together with a couple of chips along the width of the front. There is small chipping areas to the back of the base as well.
