Bidding ended. Lot has been sold.

The Zushi appears to be in good order. Expected minor losses to the lacquer around the edges. Discolouration is present to the metal mounts although this is in line with the age of the item. Minor loss to the gilding to the interior, in particular to the interior doors, also bearing minor loss of polychrome decoration commensurate with age. Otherwise, the item appears to be in good overall condition.
