Condition

Overall very good condition. The sideboard with light surface scratches, dirt, and minor edge abrasions consistent with age and gentle use. The reverse is finished and presents with rich and dynamic figuring to the wood grain. The interior with four drawers behind each of the sliding doors, partially visible in the catalogue illustration. The top of the sideboard with some sun fading and several small areas of water damage to the proper left side of the top, the largest approximately 3 inches long. The top with a small indentation near the back edge in the center, approximately 1 inch long, that has been partially filled and is possibly original. A great piece with rich wood and a very nice scale.
