About the Item
An exceptional silver-gilt circular box and cover, finely decorated in high relief with continuous scenes of pavilions, trees, and figures in a Chinese export-style landscape. The upper and lower rims adorned with bands of floral motifs in repeating patterns. The interior richly gilt. Stamped on the base VINH-SADEC, indicating production in the important silversmithing town of Sa Đéc during the French colonial era.
VINH-SADEC refers to the town Vĩnh Sa Đéc in southern Vietnam (now Sa Đéc in Đồng Tháp Province). During the French colonial period in Indochina (modern-day Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos), many silver items were produced in Saigon and surrounding towns like Vinh Sadec by Vietnamese and Chinese silversmiths for European clientele. These often featured Chinese motifs (pagodas, flowers, scholars, etc.) blended with European tastes — as we see here with the landscape and floral decorations on your box.
