Description: For your consideration is a very fine Chinese cloisonne case box from the 1900s. This piece is well crafted in the classic rectangular form. The top lid has two exquisite Imperial dragons beautifully enameled and with 5 claws. Official interpretation within China was that five claw Dragons are reserved for emperors (five is the holy number i.e. there are five elements). The majestic serpents are battling over the sacred orb with fiery flames above the rolling waves. All set against rolling clouds enameled in yellow. This hinged box has copper as the base metal and has greens, blues and yellows within the copper wires that have been bent and hammered into all the different patterns. This box is lined of wood and smells of cinnamon. Condition is very good to excellent for the age. There is some enamel loss to the back side where the hinges are and a very minor scratch on the top of the lid. It measures approx. 5 (w) x 3.25 (d) x 1.5 (h) inches.
