CIRCA 1725

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.

In overall fairly good condition.
With some inevitable, marks, scratches and shrinkage consistent with age and use.
Mirror plates with some losses to silvering throughout, and with some scratching and crystallization.
Several areas of the mirror plate with breaks, the lower corners with white infill, the top of the capital borders with significant mirror damage and breakage.
The mirror probably slightly reduced in height.
Several further smaller cracks and breaks to frame.
The giltwood with some flaking and losses throughout, revealing the red bole layer and gesso layer beneath.
Otherwise secure and ready to hang, but would benefit from some sympathetic restoration.
