More Information

Good figuring to the veneers. An old split to the veneer on the centre top. In our opinion the ebonised edges have been redone. The door is generally in good condition, not warped but has contracted slightly leaving a small gap on the left hand side. The odd tiny loss to the veneers, barely noticeable. Replaced section of beading on the left hand side above the door. Usual knocks and veneer losses around the base. Overall of good colour and well patinated and of a manageable size.
