Charming vintage Burmese lacquerware box in the form of a stylized owl, handcrafted from wood and layered in traditional black lacquer with detailed painted decoration. This petite piece stands 3 inches tall and 2 inches wide, likely intended as a betel nut container or keepsake box. A fine example of Southeast Asian folk art, the box showcases the lacquer artistry of Bagan, Myanmar.
In very good vintage condition with minor wear consistent with age. A wonderful addition to any collection of Asian decorative arts, folk art, or curiosities.
