專家說明

Dr. Amin Jaffer notes that this form of cabinet, opening as it does with two doors rather than a fall-front, was introduced as a result of Western influence at the end of the seventeenth century. A cabinet of similar form is in the Victoria and Albert Museum (A. Jaffer, Luxury Goods from India: the Art of the Indian Cabinet-Maker, London, 2002, no.25).

A closely related cabinet was sold 'Two Late Regency Collectors Philip John Miles & George Byng', Christie's, London, 9 June 2005, lot 173.
