Lot #64: This elegant antique Japanese porcelain box

This elegant antique Japanese porcelain box is a refined example of traditional craftsmanship, decorated with a hand-painted landscape motif featuring stylized pine trees, rock formations, and delicate floral accents. The soft white ground is beautifully contrasted by muted greens, earthy browns, and subtle gilded highlights, giving the piece a calm, balanced presence that feels both ceremonial and timeless. The tiered form suggests it was originally intended for the careful storage of treasured items such as incense, personal effects, or seasonal sweets. Its sculptural silhouette, raised feet, and finely executed brushwork point to a piece made not merely for utility, but for quiet appreciation. Natural age wear adds character and authenticity, enhancing its antique appeal rather than detracting from it. This box works equally well as a display object, a functional keepsake container, or a refined accent in a curated interior—particularly suited to collectors of Asian art, Japonisme decor, or minimalist spaces that value restraint and detail. A graceful, understated antique that brings history, artistry, and serenity into any collection. Pickup category timeslot {A}
