This small Box is likely turned from Bamboo and would have been from a joint in the stalk; finish lacquered in dark red, "oxblood". Note the superb craftsmanship of the box, the pleasing, natural indented shape; tiny incised grooves around the lid top, and around the edge of the top rim indicate old machinery, or hand-turning. While we do not guarantee this piece is older than 1900, we believe it may be very early 19th Century, and possibly even earlier. It measures about 3.50" (8.89 cm) diameter by about 1.50" (3.81 cm) tall. Remains of what may have been calligraphy characters may be seen on the base (see photos). Wear consistant with age and use. $8 US Shipping. |
