Condition
Illustration is quite accurate.
Inevitable dents and scratches throughout the mahogany surface, due to age and use (a small chip at the base of a brass line).
As expected, gilt bronze and brass mounts tarnished and rubbed in places.
Marble top with a nice colour and very tiny edge chips.
Elegant console in overall good condition.
