Condition and Details of Restoration
This item is in original structural condition and is completely sound. The polish has been revived, by our own craftsmen, by hand in the traditional manner. As ever with furniture of this age there are some old marks underneath the polish, but in this instance all quite minor in our opinion, the photographs are representative. There is an old repair to the bottom right hand side of the plinth, which is completely sound.
