Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. The electrical elements are in good working order and are fitted for a European outlet. The slate headboards exhibit some inherent surface variation with some minor irregularities and surface scratches, due to the nature of the materials. The mattress has some very fine, unobtrusive pulls in the fabric, under close inspection. The fresh rose sits in a water tube that fits within the mattress.
