Retaining original antique character marks throughout, heavily worn, faded, naturally distressed finish with scattered nicks, chips, and chippy paint finish losses. Nothing that detracts from the aesthetics or functionality but only adds to the elegant rustic warmth, relaxed classic comfort, and rich historical charm that can only be acquired over very long periods of time.
