Condition
Good overall condition. Some activity around the lock to the inside of the right door as you face the cabinet. The beading dividing the doors appears to be of a different timber and therefore possibly a later replacement The timber to the stand is difficult to identify - it has similarities to cocus wood, however no significant lighter sapwood is evident which is a characteristic of cocus wood. Minor general old marks and scratches.
