Description
le plateau rectangulaire sur quatre pieds cabriolets, à décor incrusté en nacre sur fond noir de gentilhommes et dames de cour sur la terrasse d'une pagode observant deux cavaliers au galop, le pourtour avec des cartouches d'oiseaux exotiques dans des rinceaux fleuris
Condition
A loss to the black lacquer ground 2,7 x 2,7 cm to the upper left corner, expected age crackling otherwise to the black lacquer ground. A few small losses to the mother of pearl inlays and minor wear and fritting around but overall the table is in good condition. The table comes with an old Japanese wood box. The tone of the mother of pearl inlaid decoration is slightly more yellowing pink (closer to the detail image below in the catalogue), less silver white than the illustration would suggest.
