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.
Overall structurally sound and ready to use. The glue-blocks at the underside of the top have been repositioned or replaced, and the candle-slide is missing the stop at its back, allowing it to recede a bit deeper into the top than intended. The knop to the slide with some old black lacquer, now mostly lacking. Minor sun fading to the frieze. Four corner brackets are later replacements. The pierced gallery with old repairs and replaced section, possibly later. Brass castors original. Overall presenting well, ready to place.
