A Chinese hardwood console table
A Chinese hardwood console table, 20th century, 77cm high, 195cm wide, 40cm deep
Provenance: Private Collection, The Old Rectory, Gloucestershire
Condition Report:
It is possible that this table is not Chinese. It's design is European inspired but the timber and construction suggest that is was made outside Europe, possibly China or elsewhere.
There are marks, scratches and abrasions consistent with use.
This table is solidly made and is of greater weight than possibly anticipated.
There is some warping to the wood of the top so that it is not quite flat and some 'saw' type marks to the frieze.
The construction of the top is unusual with inset cleated ends to the solid surround.
There is a rectangular patch to the left of the left drawer and two more patches to the right of the top.
The pegs at the top of the legs stand slightly proud.
Some filled knots including to the front of the undertier.
Please see the additional photographs as a visual reference of condition.
