In good "as found" condition. The surface exhibits a number of scratches, mars and wear consistent with age and use. The case exhibits some looseness in its glue joints but remains functional. Lock is missing from the fall front. The inlaid and banded interior is intact with some warping to the chapter door. Drawer locks are present. No key.
