CONDITION: The chest is in lovely condition as can be seen from the photographs, there is general knocks / marks, and a couple of small bits of inlay lacking commensurate with age and use and which can be viewed in the photographs. The hinges require attention and the two hooks to the front door are lacking again as can be seen in the photographs also two the the upright dividers to the six bottle need to be reattached as they are lose. The bottles stoppers in the top section are cork and two are lacking. In the front compartment the other six bottles the stoppers are free on four of the bottle and can be removed the other two the stoppers are fast. To the rear the bottom four bottles can be removed and the stoppers are free but the four bottle above cannot be removed (the front skirt must have been replaced at some stage with a taller skirt to prevent them being lifted out). Please study photographs carefully as they form part of the description and condition, as what you view is exactly what you will receive.
