Condition
GOOD
In overall good condition. Antique and vintage items by their very nature show normal wear to finish and miscellaneous scratches, nicks, and dings due to age and use. As we define 'good condition' relative to the stated age of the piece, we would expect to see 'character marks' consistent with that age and could include nicks or dings on a piece of furniture, normal separation at joints in wood due to expansion and contraction over time, minor damage to veneer has been stabilized, most locks functioning, most drawers and doors open or slide easily, some original trim may be missing or has been replaced with genuine period-correct substitutes or new reproductions, and there may be one or more splits in the wood due to age and use. If there has been a break in the marble, it has been repaired and the repair may be visible. There may be minor restoration that is visible. Chairs considered 'good condition' may have professional structural repairs but are considered to be structurally sound. These types of repairs may be visible upon close inspection. Upholstered items may show wear consistent with age and use and may need to be reupholstered. EuroLux Antiques makes no representation regarding the comfort of chairs or useability for the customer's particular application.

SACRED HEART
The Sacred Heart is a religious devotion to Jesus’ physical heart as the representation of the divine love for humanity. The Sacred Heart is often depicted in Christian art as a flaming heart shining with divine light, pierced by the lance-wound, surrounded by a crown of thorns, surmounted by a cross and bleeding. Sometimes the image is over the body of Jesus with his wounded hands pointing at the heart. The wounds and crown of thorns allude to the manner of Jesus' death, while the fire represents the transformative power of love.
The Immaculate Heart of Mary, also called the Sacred Heart of Mary, refers to the physical heart of Mary, the mother of Jesus, as a symbol of Mary’s interior life, her joys and sorrows, her virginal love for God, her maternal love for her Son, and her compassionate love for all people. Traditionally the heart is pierced with seven wounds or swords, in homage of the seven sorrows of Mary, and seven Hail Mary’s are said daily in honor of the devotion.
The Enthronement of the Sacred Heart is a Catholic ceremony in which a priest or head of household consecrates the members of a household to the Sacred Heart. A blessed image of the Sacred Heart, either a statue or a picture, is then enthroned in the home to serve as a constant reminder to those who dwell in the house of their consecration to the Sacred Heart.

Religion is often described as a communal system for the coherence of belief focusing on a system of thought, unseen being, person, or object that is considered sacred, divine, or of the highest truth. The Christian religion is centered on the life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth. Christians believe Jesus is the Son of God.
Christianity has played a prominent role in shaping Western civilization since the 4th century.
