As found. The top has some mild losses to the ebonized finish and sits askew from the base. The applied molded edges appear loosened or raised. The lid is observed has having some tightness when opened. Some losses and cracks are noted to the veneer throughout, notably at the central medallion. There is a notable loss at the left side. The drawers do not appear to sit flush with the stiles and rails. One caster is missing and there are apparent losses and damage at the front right corner. A handsome example with old world charm.
