Condition Report:
This is a lovely period piece with age-related character. There is some minor bubbling to the walnut veneer, and the table has had historical woodworm, which has been fully treated as a precautionary measure. The structural integrity remains uncompromised. Wear and tear is consistent with age.
A stunning addition to any period interior, this elegant Victorian table would make a perfect breakfast, dining, or display table in a refined setting.
