18th/19th Century Chinese Cinnabar Circular Box with Multiple Cartouches

About the Item

An 18th/19th Century Chinese cinnabar circular box with multiple cartouches of Families. This is a marvelous piece with very fine details on the main top panel of the box. The top panel is beautifully hand-carved and hand-lacquered with a beautiful scene which includes an elderly man and the rest of their family. The family is seen playing in a wonderful meadow with trees, boulders, and clouds. Around the side of the box are multiple smaller cartouches of flowers and leaves and ancestors playing with younger family members and teaching them various things about life and their surroundings. Boxes like this with this age and carving quality come up very rarely, especially in this marvelous condition. China, Circa: 18th/19th Century.
