Description from the seller
This elegant, petite porcelain box and cover features delicate Famille Rose or Famille Verte style enamels, masterfully depicting a vibrant green bird perched amongst pink lotus flowers and foliage. The design wraps gracefully around the oval body.
The cover is cleverly designed with an upper tray, pierced with two sets of twin apertures, and decorated with complementary floral motifs—a classic sign of a Chinese cricket cage or perfume/incense box.
Shape: Rounded rectangular/oval form with a fitted, pierced lid.
Mark: Features finely painted black calligraphy on one side, accompanied by a seal mark (possibly a poem or auspicious saying), and a further red seal mark to the base.
Dimensions: Length: 12 cm, Width: 7 cm, Height: 4.4 cm.
Condition: Excellent antique condition. No chips or cracks, with only minor, expected firing flaws.
A fine, decorative, and highly collectible piece of Chinese export or domestic porcelain art.
Shipping with track and trace.Of course very carefully and safe packaged.Item can be picked up in Ekeren (Antwerpen,Belgium). No shipping to USA at this moment due the custom taxes problem between USA and Europa.
