    Description

    A Chinese repousse silver box, late 19
    th
    -early 20
    th
    century, approximately 2 ¾” tall x 1 ¼” wide x 1 ¾” long, with a stamp on the bottom. It features a foo or lion dog (shishi) with a ball under one paw. It has some interesting “action features”: the ball rolls, the eyes move when the tongue is moved from side to side. Tests as silver. It is in excellent condition for its age, somewhat worn on the bottom, but no dents or breaks (see pictures). Very interesting little piece.

NO INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS and PAYPAL ONLY.  Shipping/insurance are by USPS Priority Mail for a flat fee of . Sales tax is only for New York
    residents (8%). My primary interest is sharing my love of antiques and maintaining positive relationships with others who love them, while not going broke at the same time. WYSIWIG. Looking forward to doing business with you!
