Condition
Box case structurally sound with all mother of pearl and inlay fully intact. Wood on case shows slight lifting to veneer and losses commensurate with age and light use. Scattered evidence of worming, however, inactive. Front panel with some scattered retouching (visible under black light) and later clear coat finish, likely to mask earlier worming, however, not particularly distracting. Glass elements with little wear to gilt elements and minor wear to bottom due to light use. Some stoppers with minor losses, however, are not sharp and are sanded down. No signs of cracks, hairlines or severe losses.
