A Rare Mid 18th Century Black Japanned Lacquer Cabinet on Stand
Located in London, GB
England, circa 1760.

During this time, Europe’s demand for lacquerware began to grow and The East India Company's importation of lacquered objects and screens created a desire for larger, more practical items with similar decorative finishes.
