Condition

Overall very good condition. This table has been sensitively maintained throughout its history and shows only very gentle wear. The top of the table with a few occasional surface scratches, light rubbing to finish and edge nicks, consistent with gentle use. The lower portion of the legs and lower stretcher with more concentrated scratches, edge nicks and light abrasions as expected with use. The boards selected for the table top of this lot with nice figuring and color.
