拍品的狀況可能存在極大差異，而由於其性質使然，拍品難以處於完美無瑕的狀態。拍品均以拍賣時的狀況出售。

Overall very good condition, structurally sound and ready to place. The marble with scattered surface nicks and scratches, natural inclusions, and minor 'nibbling' to edges, as to be expected with age and use. The ormolu with surface dirt, tarnish and rubbing throughout, most notably to feet and fluted columns, yet still retains an overall bright appearance. The mounts below the left hand door slightly lifting causing difficulty when opening. The veneer lightly sunfaded to the front, but in otherwise good condition. Together with four keys.
