Overall in very good condition. The wood surfaces have recently been sensitively reconditioned by a professional wood conservator to restore the beautiful original finish of the piece. The wood presents with surface irregularities, scattered minor hairlines and free edges which are inherent to the making and enhance the craftsmanship of the table. The wood surfaces throughout present with scattered light scratches, minor abrasions and small indentations particularly concentrated to the edges and legs as consistent with age and gentle use. The wood surfaces with some light surface soiling, water stains and occasional faint discolorations, not visually distracting.
