Condition
The center panel has consolidated lifting of lacquer, restoration and retouching to the lingzhi and bamboo leaf depicted in the center. The frame, apron and legs have been re-lacquered. The interior has also been re-lacquered. It appears that the legs have been broken and reattached and the joinery a bit loose. Two of the pad feet have been broken at the ends and reattached. There is some indication that there may have been a base stretcher which is now missing.
