CONDITION:  This item is in very good condition with normal signs of age and use. There are some age-appropriate separations to the interior of the cabinet as would be expected for a piece of this age, but it does not affect the stability in any way. This item has its original key; however, old locking mechanisms are often finicky and never guaranteed.  Multiple photos are provided that should be considered part of the description.  Antiques should be purchased for craftsmanship, uniqueness, charm and character, and very few true antiques are "like new".  We encourage you to ask questions prior to purchase. More photos available upon request.
