OFFERED ... a vintage Chinese silver-on-copper and porcelain shard trinket box/pill box; circa post-1960's; polished. It's a lovely piece with an abundance of silver used in its creation. The sides of the box have an ornate embossed design. From researching this piece, I found a few others with a similar shard, one of which had the original paperwork that came with the box (see photograph with screen shot of another similar piece). So the porcelain shard that crowns this box is possibly from a vase from the Ching Dynasty; circa 1650-1860. The box measures approximately 2 1/4" square; 1 1/4" in height. It is in very good pre-owned vintage condition. It has been lightly polished.
