This antique Chinese red lacquer document box, dating to the late Qing dynasty (19th to early 20th century), exudes timeless elegance and functionality. Crafted from softwood, the box is adorned with a red lacquer finish, symbolizing prosperity and protection in Chinese culture. The surface is embellished with delicate gilt floral scrolling motifs that enhance its charm and reflect traditional Chinese craftsmanship. A butterfly-shaped brass lock plate graces the front, adding a decorative yet functional touch, while side handles provide ease of movement.


Designed to store important documents, scrolls, or personal keepsakes, this flat and rectangular box offers both utility and aesthetic appeal. The warm patina developed over time lends authenticity and character, making it a true heirloom piece. The interior, lined with its natural wood, provides ample space for storing modern-day treasures like photographs, stationery, or jewelry.


This versatile box makes a beautiful decorative accent for any home. Place it on a coffee table to store remotes and books, in a study to organize documents, or as a striking centerpiece on a console table.
