Additional Notes & Condition Report

each desk item appears to be in generally good, used condition; each with varying degrees of wear, rubbing and dulling to the patina; there do not appear to be any losses to any of the circular abalone shell inserts, which are presumably original, however, it is possible some of the inserts are later replacement (an envelope of such inserts accompanies this lot); the clear glass inkwell insert may or may not be original, however, it is in poor, damaged condition; the rectangular box has a somewhat soiled and dulled interior, not of any real consequence, commensurate with age and usage; the expandable book holder appears to be in good working condition, however, when the sides are opened up to stand upright and then an attempt is made to close them back again into a flat position, one of the ends requires a slightly greater amount of effort to close it (but it does function, i.e., opens and closes, properly)


Any condition statement is given as a courtesy to a client, is an opinion and should not be treated as a statement of fact and Doyle New York shall have no responsibility for any error or omission.
