Property from the Villa Massei, Lucca Italy

Overally attractive, sturdy and usable condition. One leg recently repaired; it was loosened and slightly bent (probably from an earlier repair) during shipping. Top with several scratches, paint losses and water marks. Top is not original; the table probably had a marble top once which was replaced with a faux painted top in the early 20th century. Several small age cracks throughout the frieze. One small section of carved ornament missing from one short side of the frieze. Small chips, and scuffs throughout, consistent with age.

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.
