Condition

Overall excellent condition. The parchment tops of the tables in very good condition, and they have acquired a beautiful patina over time. With one minor nick to one table at the edge, which appears stable and only visible upon close inspection. The metal bases with some minute shallow surface scratches and rubbing to the finish at the edges. These consoles have been hand wrought and therefore have some subtle unevenness consistent with the production process. These tables have been authenticated by the Comte Committee in Buenos Aires, and have been registered with the Comte archive. The tables each bear stickers from the archive.
