Offered in this sale is a an old vintage - antique - Chinese Champleve cloisonne enamel of copper oblong box that I believe dates to the early 1900s. It has an impressed mark on the underside of the base that reads CHINA. It measures roughly 3 1/8" long x 2 5/8" wide x 1 3/8" deep. T...he condition is very good. There is a fair amount of enamel wear to the blue line that surround the edge of the cover and the base, however, there are no dent or damage to the metal and all of the decoration on the relief molded pattern on the cover and the sides is free of any loss. The box has its original untouched, unpolished original all over patina. A really attractive piece.
