Condition
This attractive pair of encoignures displays marks and scratches consistent with age, and visible shrinking cracks, most notably to the tops of both and doors of one, with some repairs, most notably to the veneer of the left door of one. The fine marquetry of both tops is in near-distressed condition and in need of some attention. Some chips and losses overall.
