This piece has a decorative scalloped apron and is elevated on tapered legs. Includes one key. Sourced in Italy, 1940s. Condition: Great overall vintage condition. Minor discoloration and scratches throughout that align with age and use. Includes one key. One natural wood split, as shown in photos.
