Property from the Collection of Addice and Peter Thomas, Fairfax, Virginia

Provenance:
Brunk Auctions, Asheville, NC, 26 January 2018, Lot 168
Condition Report: In overall fine and stable condition. Appears to retain the original drawer pull and lock mechanism (lacking key). The surface has been refinished and shows inconsistency in color. Scuffs, marks and scratches consistent with age and use. Age cracks visible to the rule joint and to the drop-leaves, mostly at the junction with the hinges. There is a 1” x 5” triangular patch to one leaf at the junction with the hinge and rule joint. Old cracks to the stretcher at the junction of the intersecting rails, with light restoration, this area is very slightly loose due to the cracks, but remains mostly stable.
