Lot Description
A Louis XVI Style Giltwood Seven-Piece Salon Suite
20th Century
comprising a settee, two fauteuils and four side chairs.
Height of settee 44 x width 57 x depth 24 inches.
Condition Report
Height of armchairs 42 x width 28 x depth 23 inches; seat height: 17 inches. Sturdy and usable condition. The settee is missing part of its garland ornamentation from the underside of the seat rail, on the left side. One of the side chairs has some large chips from the underside of its garland ornamentation along its seat rail. That same chair also has one of its legs slightly bent inward, but it can be sat upon. All of the pieces have a somewhat dark, dirty gold patina and scattered chips, scratches and small gilt losses exposing small areas of gesso as is normal. The tapestry upholstery is 20th century and hand-painted, not a woven tapestry. 

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.

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.
