Condition
Mahogany top was covered by a later travertine top, and thus the original wooden top shows very light evidence of use. Brass trim along top shows surface wear associated with contact over time. Lower shelf bears a faint circular water mark with irregularities to finish. Small areas of roughness along lower edges of base while showing few areas of splintering to grain. Attractive patina to copper sabots. Very good vintage condition. Please note this work may require the buyer to obtain a CITES permit to export out of the United States. Due to increased scrutiny regarding the issuance of CITES certificates, Rago/Wright/LAMA cannot guarantee an export permit will be granted.
