BERLIN, LATE 18TH CENTURY, LATER MOUNTED IN ENGLAND CIRCA 1860

拍品的狀況可能存在極大差異，而由於其性質使然，拍品難以處於完美無瑕的狀態。拍品均以拍賣時的狀況出售。

In country house condition.
There are the inevitable marks, chips, knocks and scratches consistent with age and use.
There is fading to the timber to both overall and the mounts are fairly tarnished and would benefit from a clean.
A: There is a split to the left-side of the backboard. Brass bandings are missing to the legs. Brass banding to the left side is pinging and needs fixing into place. Some chips and nibbles to the right side of the middle drawer. Shrinkage splits to the centre of both cupboard doors. Chips to the corners of the marble top.
B: The brass bandings to the legs missing. Shrinkage splits to the centre of both cupboard doors. Large loss to the front left corner of the marble.
The jasper panels to both a little dirty and could do with a gentle clean.
The escutcheons to the drawers are later, probably replacing a central pull.
Structurally sound and ready to place.
