This is the carved fretwork box with marquetry decoration. This superb quality box was probably made in France in the 19th century.
Main problem was the missing carvings. When I looked at the whole box, I noticed the bottom foot section was missing.


At first I stabilized all loose joints, veneers and carvings. And then I made the missing carving sections, missing veneers and re-creating whole bottom sections(moulding and foot).



I also re-polished 5 marquetry panels and an ebony board(the background of top carving), then colour matching and polishing of the newly made sections.



Before and after:
