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.
Overall in generally good condition and ready to place. As noted the panel later fitted as a low table and in a later giltwood frame and support. With later support planks to the underside, as well as some metal reinforcing rods added to the underside of the table top. The table top with some nicks, scratches, and 'nibbling' to the edges as to be expected. Some restoration throughout, including tinting and areas of infill, though well done. The giltwood frame with some scattered chips, losses to carving and gilt surfaces revealing gesso, bole and bare wood in areas as to be expected with age. The table base with some wear, nicks, scratches and minor losses to the faux-marbling revealing gesso and bare wood underneath. Some shrinkage crack throughout, particularly to the supports. One foot with a section lacking to one side, another foot with a minor repaired break.
Please note the dimensions provided are of the panel including the later mounting as a table top. The later base measures 151⁄4 in. (38.7 cm.) high, 671⁄2 in. (171.5 cm.) wide, 351⁄2 in. (90 cm.) deep. When the panel is resting on the base, the entire piece is 191⁄4 in. (48.8 cm.) high.
