Meuble à hauteur d'appui en laque de Chine, vernis européen et monture de bronze doré d'époque Louis XV

la façade légèrement galbée ouvrant à deux vantaux et les côtés ornés de panneaux de laque à décor de paysages lacustres et personnages, terminé par une plinthe chantournée ; dessus de marbre rouge veiné

Illustration is too bright, especially it doesn't match the darker color of the marble top. As expected, the lacquer panels are slightly flaking. On each lacquer panel, there is at least one vertical crack, sometimes with tiny losses, for example on the left door as visible on the image. The red and gold painted decoration with scattered wear especially on the plinth and on the right side. The gilding of the bronze mounts slightly rubbed and tarnished. Marble top in good overall condition. Highly attractive and decorative piece of furniture.
