Early 20th Century Design

In overall good and stable condition. There are no losses, breaks or repairs to the frame or interior of the piece. The medallion latch has a consistent patina and only light surface scratching not readily visible. The top edge has a few minor scuffs and scratches consistent with age and use. The sharkskin tiles on the white face demonstrate light age, but are very consistent with no major tears, stains or inconsistencies. The interior is a modern reconfiguration and the drawers inside open smoothly. There is one crack on an interior shelf surface. The backboards appear to be original and showcase a branded mark reading "Jean Pascaud" as well as an artist cipher. The back boards are slightly warped with age and have some stains consistent with age. The piece overall is in attractive, consistent and presentable condition.

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.
