Hand-crafted in China for the European market when rare and exotic oriental / Asian style was at the height of popularity in the Victorian era.

Black lacquered octagonal form casket, having a hinged lid with warm hues of burgundy / ebony lacquer, embellished with gold gilt figural and floral decoration, inset diamond shaped brass escutcheon, rising on delicate hand carved giltwood paw feet.

Lifting the top reveals an interior fitted with the original pair of conforming etched pewter lead canisters with circular lids and original pulls.

Acquired from the highly reputable auction house Black Rock Galleries, based out of Greenwich, Connecticut.

Great shape overall, especially considering its age.
