Condition Report
Overall sturdy, complete condition with dull patina lacking polish; probably partially professionally conserved. Typical small veneer chips, minor veneer repairs, areas of lifting or rippled veneer. A few small sections of missing veneer. The fall-front and lower doors are locked, and the key has been lost, so they cannot be opened. Marble top intact without significant condition issues. Additional photos 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 Hindman 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 Hindman 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 Hindman.
