Of circular form with slightly rounded sides, the cover carved in high relief with two figures inside large buildings amid towering trees and rockwork, a third figure walking towards the buildings along a bridge below a small hut on a promontory, all against wave and diaper grounds to convey the water and sky. The sides of the box and cover each with a T-pattern band. The base and interiors lacquered black.Provenance: The Mee-Din and Robert W. Moore Collection. Robert W. Moore is a famed California collector of Chinese and Korean art, whose passion began in the 1950s when he served in the US Army and was stationed in Korea. After his return to the United States, he began collecting Korean and later also Chinese works of art, and over the following decades became a knowledgeable, discerning, and influential collector.Condition: Overall good condition with old wear, age cracks, few small nicks and light scratches, minor losses here and there.Weight: 174.5 gDimensions: Diameter 8.3 cmWith a wood storage box, the cover with a Japanese inscription. (2)Expert's note: Recent research into the dating of carved lacquer has put forward the suggestion that boxes of this type with double key-fret decoration on the rim and landscape scenes with relatively large figures or rock formations on the cover can be dated as early as the Yuan dynasty (1279-1368). The strongest argument in favor of this early dating is the relatively recent discovery of a similar, somewhat larger box in a group of tombs near Shanghai that belonged to the Ren family, of which the latest was datable to 1351 and the earliest to 1338.Literature comparison: Compare a related box and cover, dated Yuan to early Ming dynasty and with a similar double key-fret border, illustrated by Ben Janssens, The Scholar's Desk, 6-19 November 2011, London, p. 30-31, no. 14 (price on request according to pricelist).
