The exterior is decorated in the Warring-States pattern — a dense interlace of curving lines in red and black, with small mother-of-pearl inlays. The interior is a clean dark felt, with a single metal push-clasp to keep the lid shut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-family:'Cormorant Garamond',serif;font-size:18px;color:#1E3A5F;margin:22px 0 8px;\"\u003eThe story\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color:#444;line-height:1.65;margin:0 0 18px;\"\u003ePingyao lacquerware is one of the small folk-craft traditions of north China — a workshop practice rather than a museum piece, the kind of box that showed up in a dowry and lasted two generations. We carry it because the Warring-States pattern is the most Chinese of the pattern families, and because a small lacquer box is the kind of object you keep on a dresser for thirty years without thinking about it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-family:'Cormorant Garamond',serif;font-size:18px;color:#1E3A5F;margin:22px 0 8px;\"\u003eWhat makes it special\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"color:#444;line-height:1.65;padding-left:20px;margin:0 0 18px;\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e21 to 23 cm across — fits on a dresser or a small shelf\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-painted lacquer in red and black, mother-of-pearl inlay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle metal push-clasp, lined dark felt interior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAbout 1.5 to 3 kg, depending on size — heavy in the hand, a real object\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-family:'Cormorant Garamond',serif;font-size:18px;color:#1E3A5F;margin:22px 0 8px;\"\u003eThe details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;margin:0 0 18px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 12px 6px 0;color:#666;vertical-align:top;width:35%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 0;vertical-align:top;\"\u003eHand-painted lacquer over wood, mother-of-pearl inlay, felt lining\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 12px 6px 0;color:#666;vertical-align:top;width:35%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 0;vertical-align:top;\"\u003e21 × 14 × 8 cm, 23 × 14 × 8 cm, 19.5 × 19.5 × 8.5 cm, or 23 × 14.5 × 15 cm — pick the size in the selector\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 12px 6px 0;color:#666;vertical-align:top;width:35%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 0;vertical-align:top;\"\u003eAbout 1.5 kg (21 x 14 cm), about 2 kg (23 x 14 cm and 19.5 x 19.5 cm), or about 3 kg (23 x 14.5 x 15 cm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 12px 6px 0;color:#666;vertical-align:top;width:35%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClosure\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 0;vertical-align:top;\"\u003eSingle metal push-clasp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 12px 6px 0;color:#666;vertical-align:top;width:35%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 0;vertical-align:top;\"\u003eRed and black lacquer, iridescent mother-of-pearl\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 12px 6px 0;color:#666;vertical-align:top;width:35%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn the box\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 0;vertical-align:top;\"\u003e1 jewelry box, soft cloth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-family:'Cormorant Garamond',serif;font-size:18px;color:#1E3A5F;margin:22px 0 8px;\"\u003eHow to use it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color:#444;line-height:1.65;margin:0 0 18px;\"\u003eThe box for a dresser top, a vanity, or a small entryway shelf.
