Condition
Secondary wood: White pine and poplar.In overall fine and stable condition. Retains an even patina and refinished surface. Scuffs, marks, and scratches consistent with age and use. Drawer pulls are replaced. Though not all screw holes line up, we believe the top and case are original to each other, the top was shifted an inch forward though, likely to accommodate growing screw holes and an age crack toward the rear of the centerboard. Appears to retain the original hinges. Associated to this, some of the screws were moved within the case, so there is only a singular hole visible. Possible repair to the stretcher where it joins one leg, but could be a maker’s flaw.
Provenance
Provenance:According to old household inventory, Alan G. Elliott
