拍品专文

Pairs of boxes are rare, and these boxes, with their fine matched wood and original patina, have the additional and unusual feature of metal mounts not just on the top corners of the cover but also the bottom corners of the box, which would have provided extra reinforcement to the bottom of the box, and make these boxes possibly unique.
