Condition

All elements are in structurally stable condition. There is a very small area of restoration to lower edge of one of the corners of the table surface which is only visible under very close inspection and not affecting the overall appearance of the work. Slight irregularities to the edges of the slate surface are deemed inherent to the medium. There are no other condition issues with this work.
