Description
- 77cm. high, 117cm. wide, 54cm. deep; 2ft. 6¼in., 3ft. 10in., 1ft. 9¼in.
Condition
Colour slightly darker overall and much more attractive. There is a hole drilled in the top for a previous fixing which can easily be filled. The white paint has flaked off the base as visible from the photograph but can easily be retouched. There are hairline cracks in the ebonised base which are hardly noticeable. Some very minor chips to the scagliola column section which have been touched up. More attractive in reality. In need of minor attention to the base.
