Condition
Overall sturdy, usable condition, seeming to be mostly 17th/18th century. The top has heavily wormed or deteriorated areas with a small amount of fill repairs. Several age cracks. On the base, the arched top which joins the three thin columns might be a replacement. There is one pendant finial missing from the underside. The bigger columns at the sides might be re-stuck, since there is something odd about how they are joined to the underside rails. They seem awkwardly placed. One side of the table has a newer, replaced frieze board. Worm holes, deteriorating areas (negligible) and old stains, discolorations and similar wear throughout. Condition reports are available upon request. All lots are sold “as is,” in the condition they are in at the time of the auction. The physical condition of lots can vary due to age, normal wear and tear, previous damage, and restoration. Prospective buyers are strongly advised to inspect a lot personally or through a knowledgeable representative prior to bidding. The absence of any reference to the condition of a lot does not imply that the lot is in perfect condition or completely free from wear and tear, imperfections, or the effects of aging. Prospective buyers must review and agree to the Conditions of Sale before participating in an auction, and it is the responsibility of the buyer to ensure that they have requested, received and considered any condition report.
