There are the inevitable minor dents, marks scratches and shrinkage cracks due to age and use. Some old scratches on the top. A small hole filled with dark red paste on the left side of the flap. The flap is very slightly warped on the right side, which makes the flap easier to lift.  The inner door slightly bowed. The top drawer with no runners or kickers and doesn't easily slide back fully. Veneer missing from front left foot. Handles are apparently original. The bureau is a lovely soft brown mahogany colour, with good patination.
