Condition

In overall good conserved condition and ready for use. Colour to one side faded slightly. Generally with minor old chips, marks and scratches, perhpas most notably to top, entirely consistent with age and use. Top with very slight lifting to bookmatched veener at one end which has been secured. The gilt-brass mounts would benefit from a gentle clean according to taste and brass moulded edge could benefit from tightening to both short ends. Small losses and restorations to cock-beading. Two handles replaced but good matches. Good scale and of superior quality.
