Lot 187

One sphinx is in very good condition, with only slight bumps to some corners and edges of its plinth but otherwise little wear. The other has various losses around its plinth: a large loss to its front right corner, including part of the paw above this; a large but shallow bump to the front of the plinth; smaller losses and chips to the rear end of the plinth. This sphinx is otherwise in good condition. Both have dirt accumulated in their crevices, especially around their lower parts.
