This is an estate item from a woman who collected many Chinese antiques from her travels there in from the 1940s to 1960s. I don't know its age, but it is an original, handmade box marked CHINA in red on the bottom. The beautiful and intricate floral design is on a mottled yellow enamel background. Both the interior and bottom are enameled in turquoise. The white you see in the photo is a reflection, not a flaw. That being said, there are color imperfections inherent in the difficult process. The base, edges, feet and hinges appear to be brass. Divided into 3 even compartments for jewelry, trinkets, what have you. Exterior measures 7.5 inches by 1 3/4 (including feet) by 3 1/8 inches. Bits of enamel loss on 2 corners and tiny pits here and there. Bottom enamel has small bubble strip from the enameling process. Please see photos for details.Wonderful item!
