Condition Report
Back left leg not secured in place, will fall out when lifted but otherwise stable in resting position. Overall sturdy and attractive condition with even patina to bronze mounts throughout. The interior drawers open and close smoothly; door opens easily. Apparently lacking a key. The middle drawer along the top edge opens easily, the others difficult to open without key but seem to function smoothly. Some minor roughness to edges of marble top.
