Condition Report:
Overall in very good condition. Wood surface present with scattered areas of very faint scratches, concentrated to the tabletop and consistent with age and gentle use. Some very minor lifting to wood veneer on the edge of the uppermost drawer, only visible upon close inspection. Wood surfaces on drawers with some hairline separation along the grain of the wood, consistent with the natural aging of the material over time. Edges of drawers with very minor flaking of veneer, consistent with intended use. All drawers open and close easily. Bronze surfaces with oxidation, consistent with the natural aging process of the material over time.The rosewood figurations are particularly fine on this innovative creation by Printz.
