Table presents well with only minor wear from use over time. Top shows scattered minor scratches, a few darkened dents, a few areas of fill likely in the making, and some small chips mostly to edge. Wear to legs and feet commensurate with use over time and includes a few seam separations, as well as several areas of larger chips and losses. Very good overall condition.
