Very good overall condition. This elegant dressing table presents with instances of wear and light surface scratches, mainly located on the top and on the feet. There are some varnish cracks. Dents and tiny losses along the edges, but not visually distracting. One cross is inscribed in pen felt inside the left drawer. Restorations on the front right hand side and on the right upper side. All consistent with age and use.
