This late 19th-century Chinese porcelain box is a testament to fine craftsmanship, featuring hand-painted polychrome enamels and custom brass mounts. Each facet of the molded porcelain—excluding the base—is adorned with intricate, delicate floral designs. The interior of both the lid and the base are marked with the Chinese character for "three." The piece is finished with a period-correct pin hinge and a partially glazed base. The word CHINA is stamped in underglaze red in the center of the base.
