Provenance: Christie's, New York, 29 November 1984, lot 588.
Private collection, Paris, 1984-2009. 

Note: Compare a similarly constructed jumu cabinet illustrated by Wang Shixiang in Connoisseurship of Chinese Furniture: Ming and Early Qing Dynasties, Hong Kong, 1990, no. D25. The author explains that the panel at the front of the cabinet, as can be seen here, is referred to as a guitang and can be plain or divided into three sections. Wang also suggests that furniture of this type in huanghuali was made in the area of Suzhou.
