French Louis XVI style walnut sideboard, late 19th c., having shaped top, over three graduated drawers, with gilt metal shield escutcheons, four cabinet doors, flanked by fluted posts, ending on short tapered legs, approx 37.5"h, 76.25"w, 24.75"d

10.24.24-I note that the sideboard is presently intact and structurally sturdy, the case having tonal variation, mostly due to areas of sun fading and water spotting, the top having horizontally-extending splits and panel separation with filled reinforcement, several wood nail covers are now lacking along the front edge appearing as shallow divots, the corners of top and cabinet doors having typical minor seam separation at corner joinery but all remaining stable at this time, the left-hand cabinet with patched repair to an area of loss at top corner, I observe a few typical minor splits, and old evidence of woodworm including some channeling at the cabinet trim, there is a minor glue repair to the outer side of front right support (see image), drawers currently operate smoothly, and interior cabinet shelving appears sturdy, I observe typical minor surface wear such as light abrasions, chips, and nicks
