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.
In generally good condition overall. There are the inevitable minor marks, scratches, knocks, shrinkage and wear consistent with age and use. On of the legs with a hairline crack running through the base but stable due to its connection to the seat above. Shrinkage cracks through the central support as well as a few old metal stapled repairs. One corner of the seat and one corner of the base with an old area of loss. A repaired vertical crack through one side of the seat with a metal strap to both sides (some of which is now lacking). Overall in good decorative order.
