condition
The chest is generally in solid structural condition with many small cosmetic marks of age and use and various veneer patches and beading repairs here and there.
The drawers run fairly well for their age and the interiors are in clean condition having been stripped of their paper linings at some point in time. The top left hand drawer has some shrinkage splits to the base.
The top of the chest has various marks below the polished finish and one side panel has a filled shrinkage crack.
The drawer handles have been changed over the years to accommodate changing tastes.
