This is an absolutely outstanding, museum quality circa 1900 Japanese travel shrine made of elephant ivory with metal hinges signed by the maker: Kodo. Don't let its small size fool you...there is so much work in this tiny shrine, ivory carved to almost paper thin in places. Ornately carved everywhere. Stands 3 1/6 inches tall, is 5 1/8 inches opened in diameter and 2 1/2 inches in
diameter when closed. There is no damage and no restorations. The outside could use a light cleaning though the inside is clean and white. Ask about my no interest lay away plan. I can make sure that anyone can own anything on my website by arranging
payments to suit the buyer.

Another fine circa 1880s Chinese sterling silver snuff box which could be used for pills or nick nacks. Stands 1 inch tall. Is 1 5/8 inches in diameter. Lots of work. This is not a tourist piece but it is a true work of art. Top decorated with grapes and leaves in refief. No damage of any kind. Lid fits perfectly. Marked with Chinesse character on bottom. Free USA 48 states insured shipping. See my similar snuff box. If both are bought by the same person I will still ship free within the lower 48 states.
