Provenance : Christie's Londres, le 16 mars 2012, lot 180.

A Louis XV style gilt-bronze mounted and kingwood bureau plat

CONDITION REPORT :
Good overall condition despite the inevitable shocks and marks in accordance with age and use. Wears to the gilding which is slightly tarnished in exposed areas, as expected. The veneer is sun faded. The gilt-bronze mount decorating the keyhole of the left hand side drawer is missing. The left hand side drawer is locked (the corresponding locker is broken and would need to be restored). Elegant model with great potential.
