Section of the AAMD Guidelines relied upon for the exception to 1970
Informed judgement that works were outside of the country of modern discovery before 1970
Explain why the object fits the exception set forth above
Based on the results of provenance research, the museum can make an informed judgment that the Work was outside its probable country of modern discovery before 1970 or legally exported from its probable country of modern discovery after 1970: Glass vessels of this period and type are generally approved for export and sale from their countries of origin, to the best of our information and belief. Unfortunately, after due diligence there was no export documentation extant for this object by the time it was gifted to the museum.
