Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. All components of the work are present and accounted for. There is light accumulation of dust on the surface of the shelf and the lacquerware containers. Upon close inspection, there is evidence of hairline craquelure throughout, most noticeable on the circular tops and the cylinder surface of all five lacquerware containers. There are minor chips to the upper rims of the largest container and second smallest container. Please note this work is accompanied but specific installation instructions from the artist's studio.
