European Furniture and Decorative Arts

Sturdy, attractive condition overall. Incorporates 17th/18th century elements (the cup-and-cover supports, the medial shelf boards, possibly the top boards, some of the back boards, possible some of the decorative carved front rails) but likely overall a construction of the 19th century. The door hinges, marquetry doors, interior rails and other elements are likely late 19th or early 20th century). There are age cracks, worm holes, protruding pegs and negligible discolorations throughout. The top with some faded areas of finish probably from moisture where an object was placed. Probably refinished in the early 20th century. 

The physical condition of lots in our auctions can vary due to age, normal wear and tear, previous damage, and restoration/repair. All lots are sold "AS IS," in the condition they are in at the time of the auction, and we and the seller make no representation or warranty and assume no liability of any kind as to a lot's condition. Any reference to condition in a catalogue description or a condition report shall not amount to a full accounting of condition. Condition reports prepared by Freeman's staff are provided as a convenience and may be requested from the Department prior to bidding.

The absence of a posted condition report on the Freeman's website or in our catalogues should not be interpreted as commentary on an item's condition. Prospective buyers are responsible for inspecting a lot or sending their agent or conservator to inspect the lot on their behalf, and for ensuring that they have requested, received and understood any condition report provided by Freeman's.
