Condition Report
Lots of scraped varnish patches throughout, excessively so around the plinth. The gilt rockwork is missing from the left side. In our opinion the top and both sides are later painted. The three drawers are in original condition. It is our opinion that this has been altered from its original state and manufactured using material from other pieces of furniture.
