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. As stated in the cataloguing, the marquetry scene is Louis XVI/last quarter 18th century, and the table overall constructed in the 20th century. With scattered age and construction cracks, and with general overall marks, nicks, surface scratches, tiny losses and repairs consistent with age and use. The veneers with scattered fraying, lifting, and minor cracks with areas of losses and signs of infill. The ormolu with some minor surface scratches, slight casting inconsistencies, light oxidation and rubbing, as to be expected. Overall good presentation, ready to place. With two keys.
