Condition report:
Various later elements including later marquetry.
19th Century Edward and Roberts stamped block added to replace the lock on the top right short drawer.
Later bun feet.
Numerous losses to the moulding and veneers.
The metal work - handles and escutcheons could be Dutch.
The drawer linings with relatively thick sides and wide dovetails, would suggest a Continental origin.
Later mirror plate with some oxidization and losses to the silvering along the edges.
Viewing is strongly recommended.
