Comment:
A decorative and useful piece! Yes, you can still use it!
Condition:
GOOD
In overall good condition. Antique and vintage items by their very nature are used items and will show signs of normal wear due to age and use. As we define 'good condition' relative to the stated age of the piece, we would expect to see 'character marks' consistent with that age and could include nicks or dings to a wooden or metal object, wear to a painted surface, speckling on a mirror, crazing or manufacturer?s glaze skips in ceramic finish, wear to a label, and some original decorative trim may be missing. If ceramic/porcelain restoration has been done, it is of museum-quality so that it is hardly discernable and would be mentioned in the listing. 'Good condition' would not include chips or cracks in any glass or ceramic item.

Material:
RATTAN
Rattan is the name for roughly six hundred species of palms native to tropical regions of Africa, Asia, and Australia. Raw rattan is processed into several products for use in furniture making. From a strand of rattan, the skin is peeled off and used to make woven seat bottoms for chairs, also called caning. The remaining core of the rattan can be used to make wicker. Rattan is a very useful material because it is lightweight, durable and flexible. Rush bottom chairs are made in a similar weaving process using strands of grassy plants.
