A Chinese peach-shaped box crafted in vibrant cinnabar lacquer (tihong), a technique involving layered lacquer carving. The entire surface is intricately carved in deep relief with auspicious longevity motifs: cranes in flight, ripe peaches, and a central circular shou (longevity) character, all set against a fine woven ground pattern. The smooth, rounded edges and matching base highlight the meticulous craftsmanship of Qing dynasty lacquer artisans. The glossy red finish enhances the three-dimensional texture of the carvings. Measuring 40 cm in length, 40 cm in width, 21 cm in height, and weighing 3840 grams, this box embodies the luxurious artistry and symbolic richness of Chinese carved lacquer, where peaches and cranes represent longevity and good fortune.
