This is of wonderful quality, it sits on beautifully turned legs terminating in brass casters. The two drawers also have beautifully turned handles and fine, hand cut dovetailed joints. The inset leather top is hand coloured and tooled round the edges. This has a nicely finished back so can be used as a free standing item.

We have had this re-polished, the condition is excellent for its age. There is just some normal age related wear and patina here and there beneath the polish.
