Description
This piece has some underside wood decay, long since inactive, but it can either be left alone (as I've done) or replaced with little effort. Also, there are parts of 2 tiles missing along the side/bottom. The brass exterior trim isn't perfect, but is still beautiful. The interior trim is in excellent condition and appears to be chrome plated. The item has a 2-piece metal shelf. It has a lock but no key. Most locksmiths can provide skeleton keys. I don't know the exact weight of this item, as I would need a freight scale. This was used for years as an occassional table, end or coffee table.
