Condition
Overall good condition. The wood presents with a few light surface scratches, consistent with age and gentle use. The top and base edges presents with some traces of previous small restorations ( most likely filling of little chips or dents). The wood on the legs is slightly dry and the lower quadrant presents with a few craquelures with previous small infills.
