This illustrative Louis XIII scenario focuses on decanter style and period, labels and codes, and storage checks. Such items involve identity, condition and accessories at the same time; the purpose is to set out a clear order of review.
Start with the context, but do not preset the outcome
Scope note: the following is a common documentation scenario, not an actual customer case, price record or proof of transaction.
The scenario begins by confirming quantity, identity and storage risks, then identifies which items require further review or physical inspection. It does not presume authenticity, value or the final outcome for any item.
Match photographs, number cards and decanters item by item
- 1. Brand, product name, and grade.
- 2. Clues from decanter shape, volume and period.
- 3. Label, bottle base, and visible codes.
For multiple items, use identifiers such as A01 and A02. Place the number card beside the decanter or outer box; do not attach it to the label, closure, stopper or original packaging. For each identifier, photograph the full item, front and back, key markings, accessories and defects separately.
Leave it as is and list exceptions
- Closure and fill level.
- Crystal decanter, stopper and external condition.
- Gift boxes, certificates, and accessories.
Do not open bottles, change stoppers, or wipe old labels. The bottle body, neck, front and back labels, fill level, bottle base, and existing accessories should be fully documented.
Which conclusions still await physical inspection
The completed list shows which records are complete, which versions remain unresolved and which condition issues may affect later inspection. Photographs, anecdotes and online asking prices do not establish that a transaction occurred. Cognac and other imported spirits may have multiple decanter shapes, volumes and box versions; the same name does not establish the same release period.
