CONDITION
 
There are marks, scratches and knocks commensurate with age and use. There are minor losses – for example to the inlay of the cornice on the left and side and edges of cupboard doors – and some small repairs. There is some localised historic woodworm, mainly to the lower section, but overall this does not affect the integrity of the piece. The hardware is replaced. The backboards are sound and shelves sturdy. There is a working key for each section. The cupboard is unusually large and very handsome, with good colour and patina.
