Lot 1103

A FRENCH WALNUT DESK/CONSOLE TABLE
LATE 19TH CENTURY

The rectangular top above a pair of drawers around a kneehole to one side, and carved frieze to the other, raised on turned supports, joined with a conforming stretcher
75cm high, 200cm wide, 70cm deep

Estimate $1,000 - $1,600

Sold for $700

the top has shrinkage gaps (up to about 8mm) between its two main planks and between the ends of these planks and the triangular sections that form the ends of the top; the top and rest of the table is otherwise in good condition commensurate with age and use, with superficial knocks, surface blemishes, and short (non-structural) shrinkage cracks, etc.; each drawer front has a pair of small filled holes where previous handles have been removed; there is evidence of past woodworm activity, principally around the lower parts of the legs, but no indication this is recent.
