The safe is rusted throughout.

One applique/crest to the front door is requiring reattachment.

The associated wooden top is stained and chipped to the corners.

Internally there is a missing handle to the bottom drawer, now replaced with twisted wire.

The wooden shelves inside do not appear to be original with a ‘new’ infrastructure of pine brackets. The baize covering is also a later addition.

The safe has a key and block mechanisms come out from the doors.
