    Description

    Offering a rare large size antique Japanese wood and mother of pearl inlay cigarette, snuff box combination. The deep red tone wood is inlaid with an intricate mother of pearl scene, a small temple, scholars,  a geisha playing the biwa, trees, fruit and cranes in the background. Both ends have inlay decoration.
    The inside is divided into two sections. The larger cigarette section measures 4" x 2 3/4". The smaller snuff section measures 2 3/4" x 2 3/4".
    A metal pin is used for the hinge. The lid does not fully close on the right side. This can be seen in the eighth photo. This does not detract from the overall beauty of the box. The wood is in beautiful condition, no scratches, small scuffs only. The overall condition is excellent for the age, possibly late 1800's or early 1900's.
    The first photo is taken with flash, the remainder are without flash.
    Total measurements: 7 1/2" long x 4" wide x 1 1/2" high. Weighs 8.2  oz.
