Condition report
A Christie's specialist may contact you to discuss this lot or to notify you if the condition changes prior to the sale.
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.
An attractive piece in overall good condition. Minor surface scratches to wood, and light edgewear consistent with age and gentle use. Wood surfaces have been professionally and sensitively re-ebonised. The settee has been professionally reupholstered and present with some faint marks to the seat. In the catalogue illustration the fabric upholstery presents a distorted moire effect which is not a feature of the upholstery. Additional images available upon request. Some minor cracking to the joints but the piece remains structurally stable. A practical and stylish example of Hoffmann’s ouvre of good proportions.
