Collect: Palm Beach

The pedestal base/feet are stable, however, the tilting mechanism requires professional restoration: the top tilts, but due to the damage, it is unstable when it is flat (it does not sit flush on the base and does not secure to the base). There are two large age splits to the lacquered wood of the table top. The lacquered surface has scarce small losses at the edges and stable craquelure throughout, to be expected for age. One of the pedestal feet has been broken and repaired. The gilding on the feet is worn consistent with age and use. Additional images available upon request.

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.
