a black laquer Oriental Jewel Box that i purchased in England. I don't know the age of this box, and it does have a few really tiny chips on the outside, and part of the wood on the inside is gone (splintered). The box does 'feel' old to me, and it is 5 3/8 inches wide, and 3 1/2 inches long, and 1 1/2 inches tall. (priced accordingly with the faults)
