AN 18TH CENTURY MAHOGANY TWO-FOLD FIRE SCREEN

Provenance;  Anthony Eden, Binderton House, Sussex.  The Collection of The Earl and Countess of Avon.

Condition report: 

The panels are in a fragile state - as can be seen from the images - numerous cracks, lifting and some subsequent loss. Fading and discolouration. Some areas showing the canvas backing beneath. The reverse covered in a stiff fabric, also discoloured and worn. One corner lifting at the back. 

The frame in good condition. A few light and general inevitable scuffs, scratches, dents, small chips and marks commensurate with wear, use and age.
