A ZITAN QUATREFOIL BOX AND COVER
18TH CENTURY
The cover is well carved in the center with crossed ruyi within a shaped medallion surrounded by four symmetrically placed roundels of cranes, each grasping a peach branch in its beak, all reserved on a finely carved wan diaper ground and each even further carved with a beaded ruyi head. The sides of the box and cover are carved with detached ruyi heads, and the box is raised on small integral feet and the corners.
