A Chinese Gilt Decorated Red Lacquer Corner Cabinet

Late 19th/Early 20th Century

Height 60 x width 38 x depth 21 inches.

Having areas of cracking and instances of red in-painting to the doors, particularly framing the images. The upper corner of the right door with damage. The interior lined with mirror panes, some detached and loose. Although stable when doors are closed, the weight of the doors when opened is too much for the cabinet to hold itself up and would require additional support or to be secured to the wall behind it. Note that the cabinet is of pyramidal shape to fit a corner.
