The armoire is structurally sound and ready to place. The lacquer panels with visible craquelure throughout with associated losses and shrinkage cracks in multiple areas. The lacquer is significantly dried overall. The lacquer panels on the sides in similar condition with multiple losses and cracks, along with areas of infill and overpainting. The verneers with very minor nicks and nibbles along the edges. The two front lower corners with losses to the verneer. Further verneer losses to the center of the apron. The frieze above the doors with minor chips and losses to the wood. Some minor chipped repairs overall with simulated wood paint. The ormolu with light wear and dirt overall, to be expected with age and use. The central foliate right door edge with rubbing to the gilding, consistent with use. ONE KEY.
