In good antique condition throughout with some signs of age. There is surface wear in places including age-related marks, scratches and fading to the top, sides and back. There is some shrinkage to the top and sides (pictured) as well as wear to the top left drawer (pictured), however, this does not affect the overall integrity of the piece. The drawers are solid oak, making them very solid and sound. A lovely example of an antique early 17th century oak chest of drawers.
