Center Stage: The Laura Pels Collection | Act II: Furniture and Decorative Arts

Seat height 16 inches.
Each in overall fine and usable condition. Scuffs, marks and scratches consistent with age and use. Traces of old worm visible in few areas. Few age cracks throughout. The cane seats likely later and are largely intact, though one armchair and two side chairs will need to have their caning redone. Corner glue blocks replaced on most joints. Retaining a fairly even painted surface throughout, thought eh gilding and paint likely touched up and not the original treatment. The upholstered cushions showing staining, discoloration and other surface wear.

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.
