The sideboard is in good vintage condition overall. Any signs of use are minimal. The item has been diligently cleaned, polished, lightly refinished, and sealed to ensure its continued elegance. One of the back legs had experienced an old break, which had been skilfully repaired previously, this adds to its sturdiness.
By means of our respectful and careful restoration procedure, we prioritize preserving the distinct character and heritage of each classic piece.
