épais plateau rectangulaire laqué chocolat, le sous-main ouvrant en ceinture par un abattant, reposant sur deux larges montants en laiton formant "U", s'incrustant dans le plateau et formant cabochons sur la surface du plateau ; ouvrant par deux portes

Bon état général. Le plateau présente des enfoncements sur le pourtour du plateau et quelques manques dans les angles. La laque fissurée à de nombreux endroits sur l'ensemble du plateau. Les piètements oxydés par endroits, avec quelques rayures de surface sur la partie métallique. Good general condition. The top presents some indentations around the edge of the top and there are gaps in the corners. The paint cracked in many places across the board. The legs oxidized at some places with a few surface scratches on the metal part, all consistent with use and age.
