Condition Report
Cabinets are on casters. Overall sturdy, usable condition. Scuffs, small chips, discolorations and other wear as is normal for age. Two of the brass "disk" decorations from the doors are loose and can be removed, but are still present. One other disk was present at the time of photography but is now missing. With key for drawers and doors. Areas of unevenness to the brass inlay, probably with repair from earlier instances of lifting or bent inlay. Marble tops are intact without significant damage and likely original.
