Condition
Overall very good condition. The surface of the wood has been refreshed and oiled, in turn the natural grain and rich coloring of the rosewood present exceptionally well. The table top with faint scattered scratches throughout, with two to three more prominent scratches (largest of which is approx. 4in.), none of which are particularly visually obtrusive. The extensions present with a subtle carving to the underside and slide out from the side of the table. These present with light rubbing and scuffs from movement. Overall a very elegant form in a highly figured wood, the table presents exceptionally well.
