Here is a unique early 19th century Chinese Export Chinoisere Lacquer Box. I believe these are "The Three Kings of Orient" circa 1830 with entourage of attendants, a lamp bearer and fine horse under a monlit sky. Excellent artistry, and box is in super fine condition owith brilliant details.. Button lock works, hinges fine, just about mint except for the most minor of surface wear. This is not papier mache, but lacquer on wood. A treasure. Dimensions: 6 3/4"17cm) length. 2 1/2"(8cm) height. Depth 5 7/8"(15cm)
