The high, domed cover and box are well carved through layers of black and red lacquer with bands of ruyi scrolls, those on the cover encircling a roundel enclosing a central shou character surrounded by four further characters, tianxia taiping (peace under heaven). The interior and base are lacquered red.
6 ½ in. (16.5 cm.) diam., Japanese wood box

拍品专文

It is very rare to find a tixi black lacquer box and cover with this form and design. There appears to be only one published box of comparable size and similar decoration, including the same inscription, in the collection of Victoria & Albert Museum, London. See H. Garner in Chinese Lacquer, London, 1979, pl. 55.
