This is an antique Chinese antimony box, the lid set with a mother of pearl panel engraved with the image of fishermen in their sampan at work near the shore. Each of the four sides of the box is decorated with a different image of flowers and birds, and each is pierced. The box measures 7.5cm square and is 6.0cm high. It would have been originally silvered all over, but much of this has been lost. The hinge is slightly loose but solid enough. It is non negotiable.
