"Large Candy Box From The Meiji Period (japan)"
Fabulous MEIJI period cloisonné enamel candy box, Japan, circa 1880 The interest and rarity of this candy box lies in its size (30 cm in diameter!!), its decoration (extremely rich) and its condition (irreproachable). Indeed, the cloisonné enamels of the MEIJI era are to be considered according to their decorations (this one is particularly exceptional, interior and exterior), their sizes (to our knowledge, we have never encountered a candy box of this size) and their condition (cloisonné enamels are very fragile, and there are often gaps). A choice piece, a strong, trendy, and unique piece! Diameter 30 cm Height 15 cm 3.3 kg
