Condition

These nightstands or bedside tables are not only very decorative but functional. The timber is a pleasing colour, although perhaps a little faded in places from the sun. There are typical marks from water glasses. There are some signs of movement to the timber on each bow front door - typical when age and use is considered. The cane panelled insets are currently removeble and will require attention to fix into place. Minor scuffs and dents to legs again as to be expected.
