Condition report:
The items generally appear to be in fair to good condition. The boxed Buddha figures and anniversary wine glasses appear intact within their respective cases (photos 1, 2). The jigsaw puzzle boxes show visible shelf wear, particularly scuffing and softening to the corners (photos 8, 9). The large ceramic pitcher and Leonardo figurine show no obvious chips or cracks from the provided angles (photos 6, 7). The character jug and some smaller ceramic figures show a light accumulation of surface dust (photos 11, 12).
