Featured for your enjoyment is another wonderful item from Minnesota’s Attic. This is a
stunning antique box! It is made of paper mache and then lacquered. The top has a gorgeous
Mother-of-pearl floral inlay. Few nicks on the corners, common with these old lacquer items. It
just shows the tight, almost wood like, paper mache work under it. No marking but this was very
common work around the Victorian era from the orient. When closed stands 1 5/8” tall by 9 7/8”
long and 7 3/8” wide.
