Handmade Mother Of Pearl, Black Lacquer & Gold Jewelry Box With Mirror - Children Playing Design

Infuse your decor with an Oriental flair and a hint of innocence while storing cherished treasures in this magnificent handcrafted Oriental jewelry box featuring Mother of Pearl inlay. The image on the lid of children playing is known in China as a "gui zi tu" or "precious children image". It is intricately rendered in beautiful, hand-inlaid Mother of Pearl and represents the common Chinese idiom "duo zi duo fu," or "many children, much happiness." Hand-painted flourishes embellish the scene. Mother Of Pearl diamonds and "meihua" flowers (plumb blossoms) adorn the outer edges of the box, while the lustrous base coat is created with multiple applications of black lacquer. A sturdy brass buckle keeps the box secured tightly. Plush red felt lines the interior of the box keeping your jewelry from being scratched, and conveniently divided sections help keep rings, bracelets and necklaces easily accessible. The inner tray is also removable, revealing a hidden chamber for additional storage of your precious items, while a mirror attached to the inside of the lid allows you to see and adjust your jewelry while wearing it. Constructed of highly polished basswood, this stunning work is both a beautiful accent piece for your decor and a practical jewelry organizer. Measures 8 inches wide x 6 inches long x 3 inches high.
