Condition
The illustration of the catalogue is accurate despite a little too bright. Good overall condition despite the inevitable scratches and marks due to age, use and handling. The gildinv is later. The top and the marquetry of the top are slightly restored. The stem is restored in two parts and all legs are restored. These small restorations are explained by the fragility of the construction. The lower wooden plinth is later and is meant to reinforce the construction of the legs.
Very elegant model. Ready to display.
