Vintage Asian Document Box Lotus Decor Brass Handles 17.5"
Distinctive vintage wood box featuring a richly colored red ground with lotus floral decoration, likely applied as a paper overlay and sealed for durability. The elongated form is accented by brass side handles and a decorative front latch, giving it a classic document-box silhouette.
The interior reveals a contrasting geometric pattern, adding visual interest when opened. This type of construction—combining wood with applied decorative surface—was popular in mid-to-late 20th century Asian-inspired export pieces.
Condition:
In good vintage condition with wear consistent with age and use. Notable small imperfection on the front, along with surface scuffs and areas of finish wear. The applied decorative surface shows minor age-related wear in places. Brass hardware has a natural patina and functions properly.
Dimensions:
5.25 x 17.5 x 5.75 inches.
Soup shown in photos for scale.
