Condition
Overall very good original condition. The table presents with a bold coloration and deep tones in the figuring throughout. This table has been sensitively cared for by the owner and the current condition shows that care and only very gentle signs of use. The center portion of the Lazy Susan component of the table currently does not rotate. The figuring of the table is beautifully contrasted by the construction elements that become elegant decorative details in works by Maloof. The ebony pegs retain a rich dark color.
