Condition Report

The handles have been replaced at some point but the handles are not cheap new handles.

The central drawer looks to have had the bottom board replaced see images

I firstly thought that the gallery was later as it seemed that the back edge had a strip added to accommodate the rear section of the gallery. On closer inspection, the strip is actually an extension of the gallery and looks in keeping but is of a slightly;y different colour to the general tone of the rest of the underside of the top, again see the accompanying images.
