Like many of the Eames chair designs, the Eames segmented base is a systems approach to design. Condition wise we have deep cleaned, and hand polished the table from top to bottom. There will be some normal age and use related patination here and there, I can see one chip around the top of the table edge, otherwise, it's just good honest patina Conference table.
