Please note:
This lot will be delivered to our Chicago facility after the auction. It will not be available for in-person viewing prior to the auction, but additional images and a condition report are available upon request.

The white paint and the gold have age and good patina, but are probably not 18th century decoration. The table may have had its decoration "refreshed" or entirely repainted at some point. There are minor age cracks, small chips to edges of carved elements, worm holes, flaking paint and scratches throughout as is typical. The marble top might not be 18th century, but it is older. It has scratches at its edges and minor discolorations/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.

Please email for any additional information or questions you may have regarding this lot.
