拍品的状况可能存在极大差异，而由于其性质使然，拍品难以处于完美无瑕的状态。拍品均以拍卖时的状况出售。

Overall very good condition with minor wear commensurate with age and use. The wood surfaces have been re-varnished at some point in the history of the piece. With some minor separation along the wood grain, as to be expected with aging of this material. The wood with a few light surface scratches, minor nicks and abrasions. The legs with further wear, especially the back corner edges, as to be expected with normal use. The wood with scattered areas of restoration and areas of infill, including the proper right front foot with a 1 x 1 in. area of restoration, stable. Presents well and ready for use and display.
