18/19c Chinese PAKTONG & champleve scholar’s box

Item Details

Description

Very unusual late 18th - early 19th century Chinese scholar’s box with sliding cover and 3 compartments. The material of the box is paktong - an alloy made of copper, nickel and zinc extensively used in China for export objects in the 18th and 19th centuries. The cover bears carved decoration of a deer under a pine tree watching a crane in flight - all three allude to immortality. The lower areas are filled in champleve technique with enamel imitating the color of very dark lapis lazuli. The sides are decorated with finely engraved landscapes in scholarly taste with huts among pine and willow trees and distant mountains. The box must have been used for scholar’s items like brushes, ink cakes and such. Very nice and unusual object, beautiful patina, pleasant feel of age. Length 5 3/8 inches, height 1 1/4 inches.
