Good condition with slight signs of age-related wear, including minor damage, e.g. to individual column bases (see photos). Three missing shelves have been added. The old dark surface coating has been removed from the outside of the wood and bleached, so that the natural texture of the old oak wood now appears unsealed and light in colour.

The cabinet can be transported in 2 parts (upper part + lower part). In addition, the doors, drawers and shelves can be removed. See less
