Condition report: 


The top with various old marks, inevitable scuffs, scratches and stains, commensurate with wear, use and age, including an unusual ring mark. See photo. 

The tops are quite often associated, and the lock to this one and area above the bird cage with two additional slithers of timber to secure the to, as well as a later screw to one of the supporting rail would indicate some changes. See images. 

Repair to the foot of one. See image of spliced tip. See image of this and also the measured distance between toes - which is approx 56cm. The circumference is approx 26.5cm/ 27cm at the base of the column. See extra image
