This is a distinctive vintage pull-out storage box, crafted from ebony wood with a rich, dark finish and a prominent straight grain texture.
The box features a clever sliding lid mechanism, with the top panel sliding open to reveal a long, rectangular storage compartment. The lid is elaborately decorated with a series of intricate inlays and carvings. At the top and bottom are two circular bone plaques, deeply carved with traditional dragon and phoenix motifs. Between them is a central, multi-part decorative element featuring a carved bat (symbolizing good fortune), a central medallion with a red gemstone, and a dangling ornament of three yellow coins tied with green cord and red tassels. This composition is rich in auspicious symbolism, representing blessings, wealth, and good luck.
The box is constructed with traditional joinery and is both a functional storage piece and a striking example of traditional Chinese decorative arts. It is perfect for storing jewelry, seals, or small treasures, and makes a unique addition to a desk or display shelf.
