Furniture
The furniture that we offer is in our opinion American
made and ranges from about 1775 through the 1800s in date
of origin. Its surface condition will be documented; eg, original
paint or surface, touch-up or complete repaint, and original
or older varnish. We have not had professional surface analysis
done, thus, that which we state is in our best opinion. Based
upon form, construction techniques, tool marks and reference
books, we will offer a period of construction and classification;
eg, Country Chippendale, circa 1785-1795. Visible repair or reconstruction
done or subsequent loss of parts will also be noted. Wood condition
such as, warping, cracks, and breaks beyond what one would reasonably
expect from its normal wear and aging process will also be noted
and we will comment on hinges, locks, escutcheons, screws, nails
and pulls. It is our intention to honestly describe for you the
object we offer.
