1645 Chinese Silver Dragon Box. This small, round box is Chinese in origin and from the early 20th century period. The decoration is repousse with a dragon head forward to the lid and a coiling dragon running around the body. It is hand made from silver and could have been for a number of purposes such as snuff, a pill or lozenge box or for cosmetic use. There does appear to be a mark struck the base, but it is very weakly done and hard to make out any detail even with a loupe. A nice little piece for the collector. Minor knocks and wear, although as it is handmade some of this may simply be from the manufacture.
