CINOA
An exquisite Chinese export black lacquer tea caddy, finely decorated throughout with Oriental scenes, dragons and exotic ornaments.
Qing dynasty, mid-19th century.
Why we like it
With all its exquisite decoration, this box is complete with its original brass handles and the finely chased paktong containers.
Such luxurious items were popular in England during the height of fashion for oriental exoticism, called chinoiserie in Europe.
