Palm Beach Furniture and Decorative Arts

The mirror is in overall very good condition with glass which is free of cracks, chips or visible repairs. The large giltwood frame retains all of its elaborate embellishments with the gilt finish displaying only minor crazing / cracks to the gesso. The gilt finish is most likely later or has been retouched. One gilt metal sconce displays what appears to be a repair to its base which was most likely resoldered at some point. The porcelain plaques are intact and present without major flaws or visible repairs, one plaque retains a date insribed on verso of June 12, 1907. Please see condition photos.

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.
