Estimate £800-1,200
A fine quality table in overall good condition.
There is an extremely heavy and thick plate glass cover sitting on the top (and almost certainly the reason for the table having a slight wobble). Colour is good and rich, top is quarter veneered. Ormolu mounts have a slightly matted finish. Mahogany lining to the drawers, comes with one key. Locks work. Understage a little faded.
