Condition Report:
This is a fine quality antique English George V three-piece mahogany bergere cane suite, in a Georgian Chippendale design, circa 1930, with the cane and mahogany frame in excellent condition, which is being sold for re-upholstery. Whilst the upholstery is in good overall condition, there are signs of fading to the tops of the back cushions (specifically one armchair), therefore we are selling this suite for re-upholstery. Nominal old use marks to the leading edges of the frame but nothing significant considering its age. The frame has been French polished by hand to a professional standard in our workshop. It therefore boasts a fantastic colour and patination; this can only be achieved through age and the years of care and cleaning it has received. The cane work is in excellent condition, with no damage or holes. It is rare to see Bergere suites, which have their cane work in perfect condition, with no holes. The frame is also solid with no breaks to the arms or back of the suite. The suite is well constructed, solid in joint and ready to use.
