Condition
Overall the table is in very good condition. The finish of the top has been polished and presents very nicely overall. There is a single faint scratch to the top, radiating from the outer edge approximately 4 ½ inches. The base presents with minor and scattered scuffs and light scratches as is consistent with gentle use. There is minor tarnishing concentrated to the lower quadrant of the base as is common with handling this material. One side of the undulating base is a polished finish, while the other is more matte. The table top is secured to the base via a series of metal tabs, one of which is slightly bent. The screws are replaced. The top can be removed from the base for easier shipment. Characteristic of Pergay's oeuvre, this is a model that presents very well overall.
