The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.

With a clean, complete appearance, the body structurally sound and ready to use. The surface overall with general marks, nicks, surface scratches, dings, small losses and repairs consistent with age and use. The veneers with scattered fraying, lifting, with minor areas of losses and scattered small areas of infill and restorations. Minor areas of debris accumulation in recessed areas. Some rubbing to the lion masks, resulting in partial loss to the ebonized finish at high points. Due to shrinkage, the top slightly unaligned with the frame, along the back. Two small repairs to the interior edges of the uppermost turned elements at the front legs. The central plank at the left side of the drawer bottom partially split and slightly raised into the drawer interior. Overall good presentation and ready to place.
