<p>[QUOTE="TWG, post: 11936105, member: 88674"]Latest update on the box: after a couple more weeks of searching, I came upon another museum-quality restoration outfit whose owner is another AIC member, and among their staff was a boulle specialist. Left the box with them to scrutinize; after a couple weeks they returned an estimate to repair all the brass elements (5 in total) that was less than half the first estimate. They have commenced work - their turnaround is 6-8 weeks, so when finished I'll post a new set of photos.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
