Repair and restoration to large rim area of one footed vessel, with gray pigment across new material. Loss to tip of figure's hat as shown. Vessels have chips to rims and bases, light fading to pigment, and minor pitting across some surfaces. Figure has light abrasions. Great preservation of original glaze color across all pieces.
