Condition
Property of a Private Collector, Lake Forest, Illinois
Top with slight age cracks beginning to form; both sides of top with more visible age cracks along the edge. Very minor veneer unevenness, wear from age and use throughout. Sturdy and attractive overall. Interior is fitted for sheet music. The bronze trim at the front below the writing surface is split in the middle (see photo), which seems inconsistent with Sormani construction and may suggest that the trim was repaired or replaced at some point. Additional photos available upon request.
