Condition Report
The table needs work as due to the weight (it is very heavy) it wobbles slightly and certainly would not be able to withstand the additional weight of the two leaves without the legs being more securely fitted.  There is an extensive armature to the underside.   The legs and base of the table are solid steel with bronze. The top is a green-painted or lacquered raffia-like surface. The top has scuffs and wear from normal use. The base and legs have smudges and minor scratches, also from normal use. The two leaves are 22" each.
