A 19th century mahogany settee, with arched back, rollover arms and stuffover seat upholstered in red velvet type material and raised on four front tapered legs of square section terminating in brass capped castors. Width at widest part of back 217 cm, height to top of back 95 cm (see illustration). CONDITION REPORT: The upholstery is in generally reasonably good condition. There do not appear to be any holes, any significant staining or damage. There is slight movement on both arms when rocked from side to side. The rear legs are all sound and secure. They are original. The castors all appear to be original. The right hand rear leg has a small insignificant fracture at the top right hand side. The front centre right leg is loose. It has an old pegged and spliced repair at the top section. The other three front legs are secure and sound. All legs are scuffed and marked. When viewed from the underside the two centre rear legs have old metal bracing hoops but as stated are secure. The underside does not have any springs poking through the fabric but we cannot see the state of the webbing without tearing the base fabric. The front castors are all a little loose and there are some non-original screws.

A 19th century Dutch marquetry three chair back settee, with drop in seat and raised on carved cabriole legs. Width across arms 155 cm (see illustration). CONDITION REPORT: The settee is in generally good structural condition. All of the top rails are in good order as are the splat backs and side supports. The marquetry is in generally good condition also. Both arms have had a pegged repair from the inside edge of the stile through to the point where the arm joins the upright. Where the arm support joins the base of the settee there is a similar old repair. There is slight movement on both arms but this is not particularly significant. The rear right hand leg has had a break and there is an old metal brace support on the inside and outside edges. All other legs are in good order with no visible repairs or damage. The serpentine front rail has some minor veneer nibbles but no significant problems. The drop in seat is in good order. We can see no evidence of any woodworm.

The repairs are visible but perfectly sound and secure. The arm supports have slight nibbles to the outer edges. The legs are in generally good order all round with no breaks or repairs. The upholstery is in extremely good condition and very clean indeed. There are no significant marks or stains and the cushions feel as if they are down filled.
