Chinese Studded Nanmu Lock Box, c. 1800
About the Item
A special place for storing jewelry and other treasures, this early 19th-century lock box was created by a skilled artisan in China's Jiangsu province. The box is minimally decorated to showcase the rich, swirling grain of the nanmu wood, an esteemed softwood found throughout China. The interior contains a small lidded compartment and a removable dividing tray. Accented with simple hardware and several brass studs to protect the lid, this box is a beautiful storage piece for the office or bedroom.
