There are some light surface marks and scuffs on the shelves but these are minor and in line with its age and the fact it’s an original, vintage piece. We’ve have shown these in our photos – they are discreet and when in situ are barely noticeable. The uprights are in very good condition. There are some small signs of corrosion with some rust spots here and there, but again this is not particularly noticeable and again can be seen in the close-up photos. The nature of this modular system means it can be configured in all manner of ways – we would recommend that there are two people on hand during assembly. Please browse our photos for an accurate sense of condition.
