The box is made in a wonderful openwork style, featuring a design of dragons around the sides and on the lid, surrounded by waves and clouds. The box rests on four legs cast in the form of lions or other fantastical beasts, seguing into a cloud border around the lower edge. All the decoration is exceptionally detailed and well done. The inside of the box is lined in red felt, and the sides and lid are set with an opaque red material, making a wonderful contrast with the silver. The box is stamped HKK as well as occupied Japan. This piece is in excellent condition. There is some minor bleed through the silver plating here and there to some of the high points of the decoration, but nothing significant. There are no splits, no dents, no breaks, and no repairs. The box measures about 6 7/8 by 4 1/4 by 2 1/2 inches, LxWxH.
