Condition
Overall in good condition. The top surface with multiple scattered scuffs and scratches throughout, consistent with age and use. The top surface edges with minor scattered flecks and nicks concentrated to the longest front edge. The insides of the ‘holes’ each with a crack running through, each appear stable. The legs with minor scattered scuffs; the base of one of the legs with a professional and sensitive restoration to a fleck. A dynamic and futuristic piece by Marc Newson.
