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.
We have sought to record changes in the condition of this piece acquired after its initial manufacture.
- the construction suggests some re-use of timbre
- a long age crack runs from one side of the apron to its adjacent spandrel
- a short linear patch and a flaw to one top panel
- a triangular patch to one upper side stretcher
- some pinning to where the side stretchers join the legs
- a few linear chips to the beaded edge of the top frame
- one apron on the narrow end is replaced with secondary wood, and where the frame and apron join have been re-enforced with wedges and one wedge is missing
- a chip and minor loss to the inner side of one leg’s upper section
- expected wear to all feet, age cracks, surface wear to the top frame, and minor surface scratch to the legs
- glue and fill visible at some joints
