Scope of this illustrative scenario
Scope note: this illustrative scenario explains the order of checks. It does not refer to a particular customer or completed transaction.
This article uses a Louis XIII stored for ten years as an illustrative cataloguing scenario. The aim is to confirm quantities, identity and storage risks before deciding which items need additional photographs or physical inspection. The scenario makes no assumption about authenticity, price or eventual destination.
Begin with an inventory that involves no cleaning
- 1. Brand, product name and designation.
- 2. Decanter shape, volume and clues to the period.
- 3. Labels, decanter base and visible codes.
For “A Louis XIII Stored for Ten Years | Checking Decanter Shape and Period, Labels and Codes, and Storage”, assign identifiers such as A01 and A02 when documenting multiple items. Place the identifier card beside the decanter or outer case; do not attach it to the label, capsule, stopper or original case. For each identifier, photograph the full item, front and back, markings, accessories and flaws separately.
Describe condition on a consistent basis
- Closure and fill level.
- Condition of the crystal decanter, stopper and exterior.
- Presentation box, certificate and accessories.
Do not open the bottle, replace the stopper or clean an old label. Fully document the decanter, neck, front and back labels, fill level, base and all accessories currently present.
Keep known, unknown and pending fields separate
Once the inventory of a Louis XIII stored for ten years is complete, it will show which records are sufficient, which versions still need verification and which condition issues may affect later inspection. A story told through photographs or an online asking price does not prove that a sale occurred. Cognac and other spirits may span multiple bottle shapes, volumes and presentation-box versions; an identical product name does not establish an identical release period.
