George Nelson Associates

Overall excellent original condition. The case with some minor surface scratches and nicks to edges as expected with use. Some minor remnants of white paint to the top edge of the case. The interior is beautifully fitted. When you open the fall front portion, there is a set of five drawers each with porcelain pull. The upper portion is fitted with dividers. The interior surface is leather and is in excellent condition with some very minor scratches and a few scattered areas of surface dirt. With some minor lifting to the leather along the central edge adjacent to the hinges, likely caused by opening and closing the fall front. The proper left door opens to reveal a drawer to the center portion and two fixed shelves. Surface dirt throughout. A superbly fitted piece.
