Although every effort is made to refurbish our furniture to represent its original state best, it must be noted that most of the items we source date from the 1950s to the late 1970s. For this reason, and although restored, signs of their vintage condition \u0026amp; age might still be visible. We will typically point out any visible or notable concerns.
