Condition
Overall excellent condition. With some very minute scratches to the top. This variant on the cross-legged model was executed because the client did not want the standard case of drawers. The wood used in the board leg with superb figuring and a subtle tapering which adds to the overall presence and superior craftsmanship of the work. With a single drawer.
