Item Details
Description
Rare and stunning antique painted mirror box with idyllic village and mountain scenery, Korea. These types of boxes are very rare because they were made only during a very short period of time at the very end of the Joseon Dynasty, in the last decade of the 19th century and first decade of the 20th century (1890s and 1900s). The paintings are custom made for the boxes and are then mounted onto them. Similar examples of painted boxes can be seen in the book, Korean Furniture and Culture (pages 85 and 86) by Yoon Bokcha, Chi Soon, and Park Youngsoon. Dimensions: 16-1/2"H x 13-1/4"W x 6"D
