The wall unit has been renovated. All doors and drawers have been checked and functioned smoothly. The wood has been cleaned and refinished with layers of Danish oil. It has a beautiful low sheen luster with beautiful exposition of the grain. The brass hardware was gently cleaned, but we left some patina to show the age of unit.
Overall the wall unit is in excellent condition with absolutely minor traces of use.
