Missing decanters have been replaced, inkeeping with the period, and a new interior base has been made to put them in, made from "royal claret" pure wool baize. Repair and restoration. Old cracks, grazes, knocks and wear to leather. Hinges and lock functional, however the key doesn't fit perfectly in the lock although still manages to lock and unlock the doors. Some losses. Overall appears in fair restored condition.

Buying a pre-loved, antique, or vintage item not only provides you with unique style and value for money but it also helps to reduce landfill, and the annual emissions of an antique or vintage piece can be as little as one sixteenth of those of its new equivalent!
