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.

Good overall condition.
There are the inevitable dents, marks, scratches, shrinkage cracks and rubbing consistent with age and use.
There are some cracks and restorations to the veneer with associated 'gomme laque' infill repairs, particularly around the top of the columns.
There are some dents and marks to the brass on the bases of both columns. Some slight tarnishing and rubbing to the brass thorughout.
Ready to place and use.
