Estimate £5,000-7,000

A fine quality that was probably restored ten years ago or so, some surface scratching to the top which would benefit from a repolish with a 4 inch fine crack running from the middle of the left side hinge in towards the centre of the sale, locks look original but no key, equally ivory handles appear to be original, upon the right hand drawer one handle has been glued to the drawer front, the other has been broken through its stem and re-glued, flaps both fit appropriately when lifted and also hang straight down when lowered, under frame in good order although legs looking a little flat in colour, equally brass caps and castors might benefit from a polish, overall other than the need for the scratches to the top to be dealt with this table is in fair to good condition.
