Condition Report
Generally good a good honest item of good colour.
The handles are old replacements
The legs extend through the pot board as they should.
The backboards don't go all the way down to the base by about an inch but this is because the rack fits into the sledge supports that are fixed to the top of the base, it looks to be right enough though but often racks were added later.
Overall it has a nice typically "Gingerey" tone that has mellowed.
The top of the base has some historic shakes/cracks from shrinkage.
The rack boards are pitsawn oak and the bottom sections backboard is pine.
