Condition

The marble top is beautifully figured, there are some very minor rim chips and a paint spot. The piece is in excellent restored condition and is of a high quality. The metal grills to each door have an uneven surface, this does not detract and can be easily remedied. The gilt-mounts are in good order. There is a surface scratch to the bottom left side. Generally very good and of a pleasing size.
