Condition
The illustration of the catalogue is accurate. Good overall condition despite the inevitable scratches and marks throughout due to age and use. There are the usual minor scratches on the top. A small scratch on a front door. A minute shrinkage crack on a lateral side. The gilding of the mount is a little tarnished. A small loss to a mahogany moulding on the upper part of the right hand side upright.
Very nice model with a superb mahogany.
