Bidding ended. Lot has been sold.
Late 19th / early 20th century, with foliate cast mounts overall, with Boulle marquetry frieze above a conforming surround to the glazed door, enclosing a red velvet lined interior with glass shelves, on bracket feet
CONDITION:
The cabinet bears the usual very minor knocks, scuffs and abrasions consistent with age and use but is in basically good order.
There are areas of brass marquetry lifting in places, but the only area where brass is missing altogether, is the panel to the right of the central frieze patina.
Glass door, sides and twin shelves are all in good order.
