There’s nice delicate detail on the metal pieces. There is some fraying around the edges of the woven bamboo. Some restoration has been done. The embroidery that was loose that could be saved was glued back down. All of the edges around all of the corners of the woven bamboo, or glue down to prevent further fraying, and what couldn’t be saved, was trimmed off.

Origin: Japan
Height: 18.25 inches.
Width: 12.5 inches
Depth: 7.5 inches.
Estimated value by auction house: $500, but most similar cabinets seem to be selling for 750 and up.
Condition: good condition. Some of the embroidery threads were loose and could not be saved. These were trimmed off. The others were glued back in position. There is some fraying, especially around the bottom edge of the bottom piece of the woven bamboo. All of the edges of the bamboo have been glued down to prevent further fraying. Despite having some wear, this Cabinet is in good condition, and will last many more years.

My guarantee is that I will be honest about my items, and share what I know about them with you. Also, I will be fair with my pricing based on research, and I will also share this with you.

There are three steps involved in my research for pricing, and you can do this too.

1. Use an app called Google Lens to take a photo of any item. It will bring up similar items and how much they sell/sold for. This is also helpful in figuring out what to call or how to describe the item.

2. Do a Google search for the name of the item.

3. Do a search for the item by name on Chairish and another similar site.

Since I am being fair with my pricing, I want you to know how to do this. It will only help me by validating my pricing choices, and hopefully it will help you to recognize items that are overpriced.

Feel free to ask me any questions or to make an offer.

I have many more items to post, so please check back sometime.

Thank you!
