Condition

The illustration of the catalogue is accurate. Good overall condition despite the inevitable scratches and marks throughout due to age and handling. The top was probably originally fitted with an eglomise glass panel which is now missing. The top is veneered of ebony which is probably period. A minute loss to the ebony veneer on a foot. Two legs have been restored on a ver small area at the base. The gilding of the bronze has been cleaned. Ready to use.
