Condition
Displays beautifully with age-appropriate wear consistent with an antique piece. There are areas of surface wear and small losses to the straw marquetry, along with finish wear to the edges and corners, all of which contribute to its authentic character and patina. The interior lining shows light wear but remains clean and attractive. Please review all photos carefully as they form part of the description.
