About the Item
The HD video and photo #2 provided is the most accurate representation of the color of the actual item. It is a true golden color! Here is something you won't see everyday! This rare wood is called gold camphor wood paper weight. The four treasures of the study or the "treasures" and tools of the scholar are well collected through Chinese history. The four treasures are paper, chinese brushes, chinese ink sticks and inkstones. The complete Chinese study set includes many more items. They include such things as brush hanger, paperweights and seals. The wood itself is from Burma. Since China borders Burma, many top materials like Jade, gems and exotic woods are imported to make special items. This pair of wood paper weights used by Chinese scholars are in that special category. This kind of material is rare and not easy to find. A custom presentation box is included. If you want something special to collect, this is it. Please enjoy the many HD photos.
Pair 427 grams 28.5x4.5x2.5 cm or about 11x1.75x1 inches (each)

- Freres Rochat Gold Bird BoxLocated in New York, NYFreres Rochat Gold Bird Box This stunning gold box was created by Frères Rochat circa 1820. At first glance, it may seem like a well-crafted, beautifully designed snuff box with a pearl floral motif on top. However, it holds a hidden surprise - a technical marvel of a singing, rotating bird! The button on the rim opens up the lid to reveal the intricately crafted bird that sings and rotates. It's a wonder how the complex mechanical mechanisms fit into such a small space. This antique box is truly extraordinary and a testament to the skill and craftsmanship of the Rochat brothers. About Freres Rochat: Frères Rochat is a Swiss company that was founded in the early 19th century by Antoine and Samuel Rochat, two brothers who came from a long line of skilled watchmakers. The company quickly gained a reputation for producing some of the finest mechanical timepieces and automata of the time, including singing bird boxes, which they became particularly renowned for. The Rochat brothers' innovative designs and engineering prowess made them highly sought after by wealthy collectors and royalty alike. They were commissioned to create bespoke pieces for many high-profile clients, including Napoleon Bonaparte and the Russian Tsar, Alexander I. In the mid-19th century, Frères Rochat was taken over by another watchmaking family, the Favres, who continued to produce exquisite automata and timepieces in the same tradition. The company continued to flourish, with many of their creations being displayed in museums around the world. Today, Frères Rochat is still regarded as one of the foremost names in luxury watchmaking and mechanical automata. Their antique singing bird boxes are highly prized by collectors and connoisseurs, and the company continues to produce exceptional timepieces and other mechanical creations to this day.
