Chinese Etched Brass Box with Carved Jade Inset Top, Circa 1900

About the Item

Sweet little Chinese export brass box with beautiful floral etched designs, looks like peonies to me. With a lovely white jade top carved in fretwork with a vase framed by the flowers pouring forth from it and surrounding it. A very elegant overall design. Wood interior, likely camphor. Beautiful example of a Chinese export box of the turn of the 20th century. Measures: 2.5 high, 5.5 wide 4.5 deep.
