Manufacturer: Vintage Chinese
This lovely Chinese cinnabar box dates to 1920. It was purchased from the estate of a woman who lived for a number of years in the Orient.
The box measures 3 1/4" long, 2 1/2" wide & 1 3/4" high. There is some damage that is not apparent at first glance -- on the outside the back corner of the lid & back corner of the base have chips.

There is also some damage apparent when the box is opened. It is a lovely example of excellent cinnabar from that period with a very detail scene on the top of the box. There are two oriental people, detailed tree, leaves, rocks & mountains.
It is still usable or, placed just right, makes an excellent conversation piece. Because of it's quality, it could be professionally repaired. It has "China" on the base. Thank you for shopping at The Treasure Chest. (Item ID:TT-07) |
