Overall good and stable condition. The caddy's four feet do not all rest evenly on a flat surface, so it wobbles slightly, but this could likely be repaired fairly easily by bending one foot downward. The marks are heavily obscured to some pieces, so we can't say with certainty whether the set was assembled from various components. The mounts for the glass bottles appear unmarked, but the decoration matches that of the casters. Old museum marks and auction labels present. No significant damage observed.
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.
