Item Details:
* **Manufacturer:** Carlos Zipperer Sobr. (São Bento do Sul, Santa Catarina, Brazil)
* **Era:** Mid-20th Century (Circa 1940s–1960s)

### Condition:
Good vintage condition with rich, vibrant wood tones and a fully legible maker's label on the back. As is common with aged wood veneer and marquetry, there are a couple of small hairline splits/cracks in the light wood inlay section forming the sky (caused by natural wood movement over the decades). Please review all high-resolution close-up photos carefully to assess the cosmetic condition before purchasing.
### Shipping & Handling:
The item will be securely wrapped in multiple layers of heavy bubble wrap and shipped in a sturdy box to ensure its safe arrival.
