Box with Geometric Patterns
Not on view
The dense, precise surface decoration of this small porcelain box resembles work in carved lacquer, demonstrating the consummate skill with which Qing-dynasty artists manipulated porcelaneous material. It was most likely used to hold incense, cosmetics, or paste for sealing documents and other types of records, including certificates of ownership for paintings.
