Venetian style "Grotto" fantasy chair, pierced frame in the form of a swan or a phoenix, with raised tail feathers, rising on integral naturalistic base, approx 36.5"h, 29"w, 21"d, seat height: approx 20.5"h

02.09.26 - In my opinion regarding LOT: 3324- the chair is in stable condition with a nice heavy weight about it, after careful examination I believe the chair to be wood, there are several chipped areas on the base revealing gesso and wood grain, a few chips to wing tips and protruding elements, also revealing wood grain, I do not see any evidence of resin on similar material, however it is possible that some of the detail may be molded, it would be minimal, the wood shows some stable splits, decorated surface is with tonal variation, some rubs and general light wear, overall all mentioned minor and commensurate with use, the cushion is stained with red spotting, some discoloration and marks
