Very high quality and surprisingly large antique Chinese red lacquer box. This rare rich red lacquer box is hand decorated with fine sgraffito work, the top portrays the eternal fight between a five clawed Imperial dragon and blue phoenix, whilst the sides have floral, leaf & scroll designs with a repeating black symbol for longlife amongst a profusion of the lotus flowers. Would have been used for presentation of treats/goods possibly to newly weds in times gone by.
No markings.
Early 20th Century
Condition is excellent for this age and type of piece.
A remarkably well-preserved example from this period that is of a size rarely found.
