Quite an unusual Chinese Canton enamel water dropper. Designed in the shape of a lotus leaf and enameled, either over bronze or iron. Quite a heavy piece. The central design of the leaf is very sensually done with opalescent white and varying shades of blue. The bottom of the piece is designed as the reverse of the leaf. The small inside handle supports a tube from which water can be poured out, and there is a small hole in the bottom of the bowl where the water enters. Used in painting and calligraphy. Quite a fascinating piece.

Condition: Minor enamel loss, but does not detract from the overall appearance.

Size: 5 X 3 3/4 X 1 1/4 inches.

A very interesting piece with a wooden structure in the shape of a sedan chair.

There are three beveled glass windows, and a small white and floral enameled handle which latches the door. On the inside is a small fancy hook to hang a pocket watch. A very lovely decorative piece, and a perfect setting for a treasured watch.

Condition: There is some wear to the antique velvet, and the door hinge is a bit weak. Nothing that detracts from the overall appearance. Colors vivid on the elaborately painted panels.
