Condition Report

Generally good order but one is a little stiff to close,

I think these have been made from old timber

One base is loose, not detached.

One door springs open by a small amount if unlocked.

I think that our client had these made for him from old mahogany, perhaps in the 1980s, although not of the first quality of cabinet work are functional and oresentable
