This auction is for a superb, hand carved antique Chinese box with screw-off lid containing eight mother-of-pearl gaming counters (chips) made in Canton in roughly the same year. The box has tremendous detail in the carving which is particularly deep. The box is in perfect condition: no cracks or damage. The box measures 1 3/8 inches diameter (35 mm.) and 1 1/16 inches high (27 mm.). The eight counters all show scenes of Chinese life to one side; some have scenes to both sides and others show a blank roundel. They are shown in full detail in the scans (both sides). The counters measure 1 1/16 inches diameter (27 mm.). Included in the auction is a signed and numbered Certificate of Authenticity for the eight counters; similar counters are shown in my booklet on gaming counters, available separately on Ebay.I mail only by priority fully insured mail (Airsure) and I am very happy to combine mailing.Money back guarantee if not exactly as shown and described.Check out my other items !
