This antique Chinese Trunk is hand-painted with 17 layers of Red Lacquer. The front surface of the trunk is painted with the scenery of a birthday party for a high government official of the Ming Dynasty (the people in the painting are all dressed in official clothing of the Ming Dynasty). The sides of the trunk decorate with the painting too. Detailed painting with gold touches created a lavish look for this trunk. The paintings are kept in mint condition and add great value to the trunk. Large inside storage space. The trunk is handcrafted and structured with wooden pegs and a tenon structure, which is the very traditional craftsmanship for furniture making in ancient China. Heavy copper hardware. Circa early of 19th century. Original patina and wear. Made from Elm wood, the trunk is very solid and has been kept in excellent condition.
