The two end sections of the top have a dry appearance and would benefit from polish. There are some old and new marks and scratches to these D-ends. There are splits to the moulded edge of these. The internal pull out mechanism is a little 'sticky' and has some replaced sections of timber. The associated leaves are crude and tired and would need to be covered with a cloth if the table is fully extended. The supporting pedestal has old marks, indents and scratches.
