I know very little about Chinese art, so my description for this piece comes largely from one now listed (at over 2x the price) by a serious Chinese art dealer. I have no idea of the age of this large, hand carved Chinese cinnabar lacquer Fire Horse box. It is in very good collectible condition. I believe the frame is yellow bronze, with a black enamel coating. It has carved Fenghuang (Phoenix Birds) on both sides, and a Fire horse (Gemini zodiac sign) on it's neck. The eyes and teeth are possibly carved bone. The piece measures 10-1/2" tall, approx. 11" front to back, and it weighs 3-3/4 pounds. The box is 2-3/4" high, on a 7" x 5" base. Please let the pics be your guide when bidding, as they are a major part of the description. Please email for more pics or information.

I offer a full refund if not satisfied. U.S. buyer pays $30.00 priority shipping for this auction, tracking included. International buyer must use Ebay shipping only. Payment is expected within 2 days of close of auction. Thanks for looking!
