    Antique MOTHER of PEARL INLAY LACQUERED WOODEN BOX

    This box is of lacquered wood panels that are inlaid with mother-of-pearl, and has a hinged, slightly domed cover. The lower edge of the cover or lid, and the upper edge of the base, are overlaid all the way around with plain, silver strips. The decoration is of dragons and scrollwork. The interior of the lid is decorated vases of flowers. .
