About the Item
This antique leather box from Shanxi province has an original dark, almost black, exterior, and a deep maroon leather interior. The characteristic cracked leather texture throughout the surface is consistent with its age.
Its original brass handles remain intact and functional, with substantial hardware – the front square plate, back hinges, and wavy base plates of the handles all measuring approximately 2mm thick. On the inside of the top cover is a maker's seal, though not all characters are clearly visible.
The leather shows three areas of wear exposing the wood beneath: one on the top left corner, another at the back right section, and a third at the back top left. Despite these areas of wear, the overall condition is good and consistent with leather boxes of comparable age and origin.
