Description

A MOTHER-OF-PEARL INLAID LACQUER DOUBLE-LIDDED BOX, RATTANAKOSIN PERIOD
This lot is from a single owner collection and is therefore offered without reserve

Thailand, early 19th century. Of rectangular form, fitted with a pair of hinged lids, the exterior decorated with fine mother-of-pearl inlay swirling leaf and foliate designs enclosed within geometric bands. Each lid opening to reveal a leather-lined compartment.

Provenance: The Collection of Sam and Myrna Myers, Paris, France. Acquired between circa 1965-2012.
Condition: Overall good condition with extensive wear, traces of use, manufacturing irregularities, light warping, small chips, flaking to leather, and obvious losses to inlays and rims.

Dimensions: Size 27.2 x 15 x 7.5 cm

The workmanship and artistry of this box is of the highest quality, akin to secular objects made for court use in the early Bangkok period. This art form was especially refined in the early to mid-19th century, especially during the reign of Rama III (1824-51). The technique seen here is faultless, the carving of the individual plates of mother-of-pearl is uniformly refined and sophisticated. This workmanship belongs in the finest category of royal workshop production of the early 19th century, the apogee of Thai mother-of-pearl production.

Literature comparison:
Compare a related palm-leaf manuscript storage box, Thailand, dated to the early 19th century, 62.2 cm wide, in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, object number 2017.379.
