Condition & Description: At Sinclair’s Antiques and Interiors, we take great care to describe and photograph each item thoroughly, highlighting any notable imperfections such as shrinkage splits, veneer losses or lifts, repairs, or surface marks.

We therefore encourage you to visit our warehouse or request additional images if you’d like further reassurance.
