Bidding ended. Lot has been sold.

Condition:

In general, good condition, the base with no damage or faults, mouse tail good, ears with extremely small chips. The top has one chip to the corner on the underside, has been coloured in and is only visible when the stool is upturned. There is also one corner that in my opinion has been broken off and re-glued, it is very hard to spot, however there are traces of wax filler, please see the additional photos, I have used the biro to indicate where I think the repair is.

A handful of very minor old worm to the supports, and a couple of holes present around the mouse, 

One support does suffer with a shrinkage split towards the bottom section where the peg has been inserted.
