Condition Report

In overall fine and stable condition. Appears to retain the original drawer pulls. This is likely the lower section of a high-chest converted to be a dressing table. Age cracks to the top and sides of the case, though none that cause concern for the structural integrity. While all elements show age, the top has a mortis toward the rear edge suggesting that it was once the top of another piece of furniture. Glue blocks have dried out so the top is mostly secured by two screws towards the front of the top. The finials, while matching are likely replaced.
