Antique Chinese Enamel Filigree Silver Urn Censer Box Gilt Wash Wirework Dragon
Beautiful and unusual antique Chinese box with lid. Decorated with enamel and silver filigree wirework with gilt wash vermeil? Round shaped urn, censer, snuff box or container of unconfirmed function. Lid features a round ball finial. Base of box is elevated by four intricate wirework enamel dragons, which are attached to a round filigree decorated enamel ring base. Small size at just 2 1/2″ tall x 1 1/4″ wide and 40 gr. Believe this dates to the early 1900s as it was found alongside other exquisite Chinese antiques of this era in a home of world travelers, however, this item contains no marks to confirm origin or materials. Decoration is similar to other antique Chinese enamel filigree pieces, however my research did not produce anything with the same shape and size, adding to its intrigue and potential value.
