Condition

FR : Très bon état général. Infimes égratignures éparses. La prise en bois nécessiterait d'être cirée pour plus d'éclat et de contraste. EN : Very good overall condition. Very minor scratches scattered. The walnut button could benefit from being waxed in order to reveal contrast and shine.
