Condition
There are two keys in bronze. The sculpture is sound with an attractive brown patina. There is some very minor wear to the protruding elements and an overall build-up of surface dust, as well as a slight discoloration underneath the back of the third drawer where the patina is slightly more golden than brown, otherwise this work is in very good original condition.
