拍品的状况可能存在极大差异，而由于其性质使然，拍品难以处于完美无瑕的状态。拍品均以拍卖时的状况出售。

With a clean, complete well-maintained appearance, structurally sound and ready to use. With scattered age and construction cracks, and general overall marks, nicks, surface scratches, small losses and repairs consistent with age and use. The veneers generally with scattered fraying, lifting, and minor cracks with minor areas of losses and signs of infill and restorations, most prominently to the crossbanded border around the top, and along the long axis of the central section. Some sun-fading to the surface at the top. One hinge at one of the dropleaves is loose but not unstable, thus requiring that the leaf be lifted slightly before it can be extended. Some minor areas of debris accumulation in recessed areas. Overall good presentation, ready to place.
