This exquisite box is a rare find for collectors of Chinese culture and art. It is a handmade porcelain shard jewelry trinket box, adorned with blue and white porcelain. There is a bird at one end. The silver colored box is crafted around the piece of porcelain, with a hammered design. Measuring 9 inches in length, 2 3/4 inches in height, and 4 3/4 inches in width, this box is a beautiful addition to any collection. Its provenance is unfortunately unknown, but its craftsmanship is undeniable. The silver tone finish adds to its elegance and makes it a perfect display piece. This Chinese box is a must-have for lovers of Asian art and culture. During the Chinese cultural revolution, keeping antique porcelain at home was illegal. Many broke their pieces and threw them away. After the revolution, some of the pieces were collected and shard boxes were made. These boxes are a way to collect antique Chinese porcelain, as well as have a piece of history. Please study the photos carefully as I try to picture the piece accurately.
