Louis Cresson, reçu maître en 1738
Provenance :
Vente à Paris, Hôtel Drouot, le 24 mars 2017, lot 278.
A Louis XV carved beechwood bergere, stamped by Louis Cresson
CONDITION REPORT :
Good overall condition despite the inevitable shocks and marks in accordance with age and use. The illustration is accurate despite being slighlty too bright. The armchairs has been stripped off and was probably previously painted. Some traces of woodworms in places. Few traces of woodworms damages in places (upper rear area of the seat back and to the rear of the seat back itself). Some normal scattered tiny shocks and losses to the carving in places, as expected. Traces of previous restored accidents to the front left hand side leg. Good overall condition of the upholstery (normal wears in places). Elegant model with interesting proportions.
