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 presentation, structurally sound. With scattered age and construction cracks, including at each of the legs, but not affecting stability; with later corner blocks. Also with general overall marks, nicks, surface scratches and tiny losses consistent with age and use, mainly at the feet. Probably previously gilded, the gilding now removed; the surface stained, with a reasonably even tone. Very minor evidence of previous woodworm, now inactive. The upholstery with minor marks, faint discoloration and overall signs of wear, as to be expected from use. Overall good, ready to place.
