Antique~Burmese Black Lacquer Tiffin Lunch Box~4-Tiers, Lid/Plate,Teacup,Handle

Description

This beautiful tiffin lunch box is a stunning piece of antique craftsmanship from Burma. Made from high-quality wood and finished with glossy black lacquer, it features four removable tiers, one attached tier, small teacup, handle and lid that also functions as a plate . The intricate details of this lunch box are a testament to the skill and artistry of its maker. Ruby and blue line-art design depicts Noble Burmese ladies in court robes. It is in good shape for its antique age. However there are some areas where the lacquer has chipped off, revealing the wicker underneath.  Last few photos show the wear and tear. Price reflects this
"Tiffin is a South Asian English word for a type of meal. It refers to a light breakfast or a light tea-time meal at about 3 p.m., consisting of typical tea-time foods. In certain parts of India, it can also refer to the midday luncheon or, in some regions of the Indian subcontinent, a between-meal snack." -Wikipedia
