Overall State: Pre-owned antique condition. The wood structure remains solid with a beautiful dark patina.
Marquetry Details: Features authentic 19th-century Boulle-style marquetry. Due to natural age-related movement of the wood over the past 150+ years, there are areas where the fine tips and edges of the brass inlay are lifting and popping up slightly from the wood surface. All metal elements show a natural dark patina, tarnish, and surface oxidation.
Surface Wear: Expected antique surface wear, light scuffs, and minor lacquer cracking consistent with age and use. No major structural cracks or missing box lids. There are a few places where brass is missing.
