​This is a vintage piece and shows signs of its life and age, but remains in very good sturdy condition. Here are the specific areas to note:

​Drexel Authenticity: The buffet features the "by Drexel" marker inside a drawer, a true mark of quality craftsmanship.

Drawer Glides: All drawers operate smoothly on their original wooden glides, providing smooth storage.

Chipping/Flaking: There is minor finish chipping on the edge of one drawer and near the top edge. These imperfections do not affect the beauty of the piece and add to its authenticity.
