Preowned vintage/antique in EUC for use and age. There are some rubs on the edges and on 2 of the tasseled pull up doors, and one foot has been reattached in a slightly incorrect place showing the raw, unpainted wood around it. There is no key. The drawers are dusty. (Please see all photos.) However, all 3 mirrors are still intact, unbroken and no chips, the four tassels are still present, and the music box still works! This is a rare find in an antique that is over 100 years old!
This amazing Japanese jewelry box dates to the late 1800s- early 1900s. It is hand carved wood with a chiseled texture and has depictions of Mount Fuji and pagodas. The images have been gilded with gold paint. The box is painted dark brown with red burnished highlights.
There are 2 pull out front drawers and a metal lock plate in the shape of Mount Fuji.
The center opens up and back, the top sides open out. Inside the top center there are 4 panels with red tassels. The bottom 2 open to reveal a center compartment and the upper 2 open outward to reveal a 3-part mirror; one behind each panel and a large one inside the main center lid. Inside the body there is also a large center storage compartment between the 2 drawers.
The inside of the body is lined with Aqua tiny welt corduroy.
The original metal hinges are all intact and secure.
The music box still works and places music! I do not know the tune.
Overall dimensions are 11.75” W x 5.25” H x 6.5” D
