Your Victorian rattan and bamboo sewing stand has unfortunate condition issues. Granted, it's over 120+ years old, but moisture can really be damaging to this type furniture. A good restorer can put it right. It would bring about $100 at auction as is.
I adore these type of pieces, so I hope you give it the TLC it deserves. Would restoration bring more $$$ at auction? Probably, but it will be pricey to fix.
