with a polylobed top, with rustic scenes, centered by a movable tray depicting the return of the Madone of Arco, on a baluster shaped leg with three feet

The illustration of the catalogue is accurate. Good overall condition despite the inevitable minor dents, marks and scratches due to age and use. There are some minor restorations to the marquetry. There are some restored constructional cracks to the veneer of the central medallion. There are some filled cracks to the marquetry. The legs have been restored. The construction is firm. The top is probably fitted with a mechanism to raise the central medallion but it does not work right now. Very nice quality of marquetry and unusual micro-marquetry.
