Condition

Age splits along the globe as to be expected. Lacking drawer pulls and one sub drawer on the interior. Few patches on the drawer fronts. A few ages splits to the tripartite base and central giltwood palm fronds. Structurally sound, an unusual piece, nicely crafted. Not withstanding this report or any discussion concerning condition of a lot, all lots are offered and sold "as is" in accordance with our conditions of sale.Â
