Splendid antique Chinese black lacquer jewelry box with exquisite workmanship. Intricate mother of pearl inlay with brilliant iridescent qualities throughout.
The front face is a scene depicting opposing dragons battling over the flaming pearl in the heavens/clouds.
The top and sides with scenes of a pair of deers in a beautiful landscape with birds flying overhead with further flowers & fruits. All highly symbolic and fortuitous.
Very unusual bat-form drawer pulls. The starburst style geometric inlay throughout must have taken the maker an incredible amount of time to complete.
Pure silk-lined and padded drawers provide cushioning for your valuables.
No signatures.
Early to Mid-20th Century.
Condition is good with expected age effects including minor wear and loss.
A beautiful piece that is a treasure itself.

10 3/4" tall x 8 3/4" wide x 5 1/4" deep.
