Very good condition overall. The glasscase is slightly darker than the catalogue illustration. This decorative and modern composition is made up of decorative objetcts from different fields and periods collected by Nicolas Landau and assembled by Axel Vervoordt . The wooden display case can be opened by upward lifting of the glass. Objects are only laid on the case and not attached to it. Very rare and attractive piece.
