Condition & Details of Restoration
This table is in original structural condition and is completely sound. The polish has been re-finished, by our own craftsmen, by hand in the traditional manner. As might be expected there are some old marks and fading, but in this instance all extremely minor. At some point in the life of this table a previous owner had screwed the table together in the closed position the evidence of said screw holes and cleats can be seen from the underside, but nothing can be seen in normal use and the structural integrity of the table hasn’t been compromised in any way.
