We are delighted to offer for sale this exquisite hand made in England circa 1780-1800 Georgian reading table with period candelabra slip trays

In terms of the condition, we have deep cleaned, hand condition waxed and hand polished it from top to bottom, it will have some light age and use related patina marks here and there as you would expect for a 220-240 year old piece, mostly its in very very fine order indeed
