A fine antique early to mid 20th century Anglo-Raj or British/Indian Coffret or large strong box with brilliant hand carving over entire surface of coffret on all visible sides. Fresh from an important private estate collection of Indian and Southeast Asian antiques of considerable scope and beauty in Southern California. The coffret or literally casket is a treasure box that is entirely hand carved on all visible surfaces with a plethora or flora and fauna including what appear to be double peacocks on the lid. Coffret measurements are: 16 x 12 x 5 in. approximately (41 x 31 x 13 cm approx.). The interior opens to a tray of compartments which lifts out for additional storage underneath. When found at the estate the coffret was filled with antique sewing items dating in some instances to the vey early 20th century (said items are not included in the present sale). The entire coffret sits on four small feet and the entire coffret is in near fine condition and was obviously cared for and well taken care of. A majestic appearance, a mystical air surrounds this well preserved and beautifully executed and carved tour de force of both the carver's art and the construction of the coffret as well.
