The clock is in poor condition, the dial is degrading and there is only half of the lower hinge bowed door is in place.
A late-19th century circular mahogany school-style eight-day clock; the cream dial with Roman numerals and signed Renovated by Drummonds, Newbury; 30cm dial; single fusee movement and pendulum CONDITION REPORT: There is a mark to the paperwork running roughly from the 9 position to the winding aperture, there is also a little piece of veneer on the left hand corner away from the underside very near the 7 o'clock position of approx. 1cm. To the right of the door the mahogany has faded but in our view could be polished back. The clock appears to be in working order, it's ticking and has a key and pendulum.
A late 18th century mahogany writing bureau; the cleated angular fall opening to reveal fitted interior with central cupboard door, secret drawer, pigeonholes and further smaller drawers etc., all over four full-width graduated drawers probably retaining original brass swan-neck handles, raised on high bracket feet, 100cm wide
A very fine late 19th/early 20th century serpentine-fronted mahogany, boxwood strung and satinwood compactum of large proportions; the broken swan-neck pediment above an arcaded frieze and two satinwood panelled and crossbanded doors opening to reveal original slides above a central green key fret band and three graduated drawers with brass swan-neck handles, further flanked by two panelled concave doors enclosing hanging space; raised on French-style slightly splaying bracket feet; 226cm high x 238cm wide x 67cm (deepest point at front) CONDITION REPORT: The left hand back panel is split considerably vertically. There are scratches and losses generally commensurate with age. Some scratching and veneer loss to the three bow fronted drawers sited centrally. The doors generally appear to be in good original condition although there is minor evidence of “some” bowing and shrinkage through age. Some veneers have discoloured slightly where they may have been prepped by a restorer for restoration. All of the original locks are present and the handles look original. In our view there would be a certain amount of restoration work required to bring the piece up to showroom/gallery saleable condition. The polish looks reasonable and original. The interior depth in the end sections is approx. 41cm deep although as the door is concave on the right hand side of the door this increases to 51cm. Where the polish was originally applied in some areas you can see that this has dried out and you can see the flecks of the grain as is usual in late 19th/early 20th Century mahogany furniture.
A large, fine and rare mid-19th century French chestnut or ash femme de chambre; the outset cornice above four glazed doors opening to reveal shelf space, four concave moulded drawers below and four panelled doors, each with a central lozenge design, original ironwork and of very good colour, raised on plinth base, circa 1840, 230cm wide x 53cm (deepest) x 195cm high, together with original copy invoice from Denzil Grant (Suffolk Fine Arts Limited) for £9,600 CONDITION REPORT: This is in two sections top and bottom and each section is exceptionally heavy. The cornice and plinth base are not removable. Condition is generally commensurate with age. The second door in from the left has a cracked pane also the first door in from the right. As a French provincial rustic piece it is in reasonable order. There is evidence of historic woodworm mostly to the left hand side upper section and also some minor historic worm to the right hand side. This does have some splits to the sides but these are really just where the individual planks are parting having shrunk across the grain through time. The piece retains a good overall colour and does show minor scratching and scuffing mostly commensurate with age and in our opinion this would benefit from a decent wax polishing. Some sections of wood have split naturally (notably the right hand vertical where the bottom hinge is on the top section and it looks as if these have been filled some years ago). This comes with an original copy invoice from Denzil Grant (Suffolk Fine Arts Ltd) for £9,600 as originally supplied to the clients.
