More Information

Wear to black painted finish of the top through to the wood in places. Top probably a later addition. The odd chip, crack and worm hole (appear to be inactive) to the turned wooden sections. Square base shows similar condition. Pottery sleeves show surface crazing, wear to the glazed finish, pin head glazing faults and the odd nibble to highpoints throughout. Top wooden section does not appear to fit fully into the section below.
