Beautiful leather and wood 8 sided jewelry box with hand painted gold dragons on lid.
In Asian cultures, the octagon or "ba-gua" shape has been considered auspicious for centuries. Its eight equal sides represent life in perfect harmony. Therefore, to keep something important locked in a ba-gua shaped box is deemed a prudent thing to do. A thick layer of hand finished leather covers this handsome opium box. Brass hardware with a gold dragon design on the lid makes this an especially great looking box. An optional old Chinese slip pin lock gives it its ancient look.
Add an Old Chinese Pin Lock for an additional price.
