Vintage Vietnamese Sơn Mài lacquer box featuring a hand-painted river scene with fishermen, village huts, and bamboo trees. Classic mid-century lacquerwork with layered pigments and natural crackle throughout the surface — a sign of authentic aged lacquer.


Includes an interior sliding tray, typical of traditional Vietnamese lacquer boxes. Shows age-related wear, including missing clasp hardware, lacquer crack lines, and interior wear, but remains structurally sound and displays beautifully.


A charming cultural piece for collectors of Vietnamese art, lacquerware, folk scenes, or mid-century decorative boxes.


Condition: Noticeable lacquer crackle, missing clasp, hinge wear, chips, interior wear. All consistent with age and original hand-crafted lacquer. Sold as shown.


Ships safely and quickly.
