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.
In sound condition and ready to hang. The gilding with the typical flaking, cracking, and small losses revealing gesso and barewood. With small scattered restorations including to three of the bird's heads and the cresting. The canopy on one example restored near the top. With some small losses to the deocration, not extensive. With some light scattered shrinkage cracking, not visible under the gilding. The mirror plates with some light foxing and very small losses to the silvering. Presents very well overall.
