What does this mean?

Dear Katya,

Thank you for your request. The apprised object is a game table made in the measurements of 30 1/2 x 28 x 14 inches. This game table is decorated with an elaborated inlay work made out of mother of pearl and wood. This inlay work is typical for the craftsmanship of Syria and the Levante coast. This piece was made in the last third of the 20th century.
This piece is in good condition and there are no serious damages visible.
An estimation would be between 400 to 800 USD.
This estimation is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.

With best regards,
Georg
