Condition Report

Generally good condition, slight crack to the top.

The top drawer has a writing surface that lifts and rest on the top of the desk to write on, below this would have been a series of fitted compartments that are now sadly missing, see the images.

The desk is fitted with leather wheeled offset castors and one has come adrift due to the glue drying out but we have it, again see the images.
