The quality is superb, this has nicely grooved edges running down the front with beautifully carved corbels at the top corners. This sits on a bracket feet, it has three adjustable shelves that rest on metal dowel supports. The walnut grain patterns and colour tones and beautiful throughout, the top has a nicely cross banded edge.

This is in excellent condition for its age, we have had it re-polished. There is just some minor old wear here and there remaining beneath the polish here and there, commensurate for age. The top has had some very slight movement over the years, not very noticeable and normal for age, the top is still very sturdy and sound.
