Condition report
Amended condition report - Complete with key , good colour and no major losses, gilt mounts are bright. The veneer to the centre of the apron at one side has started to lift slightly. The key operates two locks to the side panels that then lift out - however, the lock to one of these panels does not seem to operate and therefore the side panel cannot be removed. The lock / panel operates well to the other side. The cabinet has at some point been wired for lighting. The cabling for this lighting is cotton covered and has perished and would therefore require re-wiring if lighting is required.
