Condition
The illustration of the catalogue is accurate. Good overall condition despite the inevitable minor dents and scratches due to age and use. There are some minor losses to the veneer has been restored 20 years ago. Some previous veneer liftings and shrinkage cracks have been restored. There are some small vertical shrinkage cracks along the legs. The handles of the upper drawers have been changed and one is missing. It could be easily reproduced. The leather of the writing top is later. Both inner drawers of the lower part are blocked but they could be easily released. The mechanism to raise the upper drawers is working. Very nice model.
