Lot 713
A Victorian gilt-brass mounted walnut and amboyna card table, by Charles Nosotti, third quarter 19th century, the crossbanded hinged top revealing green baize with tooled leather border, on fluted supports to splayed legs, with scroll ends and castors, joined by stretcher, 72cm high, 87cm wide, 50cm deepProvenance: The George Farrow Collection.Footnotes: Note: Charles Francis Nosotti (c.1831-1909) is listed as a carver, gilder, upholsterer and cabinetmaker at 2 Dean Street, Soho, from 1835 to 1840. Almost certainly born in Milan, his high standard of workmanship led him to exhibit a giltwood cabinet at the 1862 London Exhibition that he had made for the Countess of Waldegrave's drawing room at Strawberry Hill. By 1870 he was advertising himself as carver and gilder to His Imperial Majesty Napoleon III. He is probably best known for decorating the chapels of the Brompton Oratory. He later collaborated with the leading Victorian makers Howard and Sons.

A WALNUT CONCERTINA ACTION CARD TABLE CIRCA 1725 AND LATER The folding burr walnut top opening to reveal a gros and petit point needlework playing surface decorated with playing cards 72.8cm high, 90cm wide, 44.7cm deep Provenance: Sotheby's, Groombridge Place, Kent, 15th and 16th September 1992, Lot 30 Please note, the dating for this lot has been revised and differs from that shown in the printed catalogue. This table should be dated as CIRCA 1725 AND LATER. Condition Report: Marks, scratches and abrasions comensurate with age and useSome old chips and splits, various old repairs comensurate with age and use, some fading and wear. Some replaced veneers in areas throughout including sections of the size friezes, rear friezes and other areas (please see additional images) Some slight movement/ warping to the top but in part due to construction of the top this would seem very possible to resolve. Placing the table in a warm/ hot position would increase the chances of the top of the table remaining warped or warping further/ again.Some lifting at the edges of some veneers. Where the 'veneer' is lifting at one corner of the top it is thick veneer. The drawer front (behind the walnut veneer) is mahogany. The floor of the lining of the same drawer is also mahogany as are the struts forming the frame to support the drawer (see additional images.) As they are mahogany and looking at them, they would appear certainly to be additions/ replacements. The handle to the drawer is a replacement, there are an alternate pair of holes for a previous handle. It may be concluded that the whole of the drawer is an addition however soem elemnts of the drawer and the surrounding areas may suggest a drawer was always there. The rear corner hinges of the interior of the frame and the hooks that secure the extended action into place are likely later associated replacements The needlework panel to the interior is possibly of 19th or early 20th century period. It bears some wear, some dirt, various old repairs and some losses (please see additional images) It also bear various fading and discolorationSome old worm damage, including to the base of feet. There is various re-tipping/ splicing to the feet. (see additional images)Please refer to all additional images for visual reference to condition. Condition Report Disclaimer

The dark field shows some minute losses and creases overall.This painting would benefit form further attention. The department would recommend an inspection in person before bidding.
