All pieces are structurally sound with solid wood. Some scattered, minor surface scratches throughout wood. Crown of headboard is broken along one of the foliate arms and is secured with brown tape. Where one of the headboard finials has split, it has been glued to repair the crack. The backing marble at the top of the night stand tilts forward and is chipped on the proper right side where it screws into the marble top. The marble top is slightly scratched. Wear is consistent with age and use. Very handsome set.
