The top has a high gloss finish and the cabinet has decorative metal edging and ornate handles. This piece is stunning and unusual and is decorated on all sides allowing it to be used to divide a room. The measurements are taken at the widest points.

condition

The cabinet is generally in good structural condition with many small cosmetic marks of age and use and various small repairs and touch ups here and there. One of the slide door finger pulls is a later replacement and an interior catch has been added to one of the cupboard doors to keep it closed. There are some marks to the gloss finish on the top. The cabinet has some movement if you push it side to side, mainly due to its tiered construction.
