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.
We have sought to record changes in the conditon of these pieces acquired after their initial manufacture.
One in good condition, the other with restoration and associated overpainting to most of the neck. Both have age-related scratches and light surface wear as expected. Not examined out of mounts.The giltwood bases rubbed overall revealing red bole layer in places.
Electrical components appear to be complete but must be reconditioned prior to use, regardless of whether the lot is shown lit or in working condition in the catalogue. We strongly advise that the item is reconditioned by an appropriately qualified electrician prior to any intended use.
Highly decorative.
