Burmese betel box, kun-it, Yun - shwe zawa. This mid 20th Century box is lacquered black inside and out and features the shwe zawa gold leaf technique of decoration. Traditional Yun design. This style is from Pagan in Burma and features a patterned decoration. In very good condition overall, with very minor surface cracking in places - a lovely example.
