Condition
Overall very good condition. The wooden surfaces have been refinished and present with some light surface scratches, minor edge abrasions, light surface dirt, consistent with age and normal use. The top presents with light crazing, consistent with the ageing of the wood. Some minor areas of wear to the finish to the proper right portion of the top, to the panel lifting to reveal the mirror. Some minor discolorations, concentrated to the top and to the lower portion of the legs, as seen on catalogue illustration. The mirror is probably new and in very good condition. A beautiful table of pleasant scale when viewed in person.
