About the Item
This Chinese stackable box made circa 1900-1915 was intended as a wedding basket and is a traditional object of importance within Chinese culture. This one is carved from bamboo, a difficult material to cross cut and carve but an expert industry in China throughout its long history. Composed of two separate sections that stack into each other with a lid, this one retains its working lockable brass mechanism.
The handles and upper lid are all carved from bamboo in low relief and are further decorated with brass engraved bosses and mounts. The lid has an especially nice relief carved and incised panel in a natural bamboo color that shows attendants and courtiers in a procession, however, the rest of the box is in the traditional red stained color most favored for these occasions. The handles and sides are all finely carved and incised and the finish is in excellent condition.

Chinese Arcaistic Style Cast Bronze Lidded Urn with Carved Jade Finial
Located in Hudson, NY
This very finely cast bronze urn in an archaistic form was made in the very late 19th century approximately 1895-1900. Done with an apocryphal feeling to honor the ancient past, the vase is beautifully rendered in low relief in bronze covering almost the entire body of the urn. The predominant features are the divided taotie masks that compose the swelling middle body of the vase and also at the corners of the upper section. Crisp but subtle, the casting is clearly handled with great attention to linear form. The patina is very nice and consists of a modeled golden brown with a slight but very lite Verdigris color. The urn has an old rosewood base and lid that seems to have been purpose made for the object. Finally, the whole is set off with a carved jade finial...
