6.6.25-In my opinion regarding LOT: 3539- the structure is sturdy, the wood top displays age with some tonal variation, surface wear, impressions/thin mars, darkened lines, spotting, there is a mar at right side top, see image, the case is well figured and exhibits inherent imperfections such as knots, tonal variation, minor blemishes, some very small areas of veneer loss (mostly drawer edges) with some colored repair, and general light wear, drawers operate smoothly, however would likely benefit from a waxing to facilitate even better movement, interior drawers are sturdy, I note some scattered staining, the bottom drawer is unique, it continues to the trim piece making it extra deep, I am unable to fully access side panels, it appears that the right side panel does have a seam/possible separation?, please refer to online images for views of side panels, overall all mentioned commensurate with age and use
