Bidding ended. Lot has been sold.

Provenance: Formerly from a Country House on the Surrey/Sussex border. 

The item bears the usual minor scuffs and knocks, overall consistent with age and use.

The timber has a rather 'clean' patina overall and might have been lightly repolished. tThe colour is generally good, but there is some discolouration in the panel doors. Minor-closed splits in places. Generally good order overall.
