Condition Report
Sturdy condition overall. Both tables with a section of molded frieze loose and held in place with tape, needing minor glue repair. Scuffs and scratches throughout from use and moving. One of the bases with heavier scuffs and slightly faded finish. The marbles are not cracked or repaired; they are thick-cut and of correct color but probably 20th century replacements. A few very small chips along edges of marble. Consoles must be affixed to a wall; they do not stand on their own.
