Collection of Chinese Curios
This lot comprises a collection of small Chinese curios, likely dating from the mid to late 20th century. The collection features a series of miniature paintings, each depicting scenes of figures and landscapes, housed within a decorative wooden case. Accompanying these paintings are numerous silk tassels in vibrant red and gold, adding a touch of traditional Chinese aesthetic. The case itself appears to be crafted from wood with a dark finish, providing a contrasting backdrop to the colourful tassels and paintings.
Condition and Collectibility
The condition of the items appears consistent with age and use. The paintings exhibit some minor wear and fading, while the silk tassels show signs of handling. This collection would appeal to collectors of Asian art, Chinese antiques, or those interested in vintage curios. The variety of items within the lot offers a glimpse into traditional Chinese craftsmanship and decorative arts, making it a unique addition to any collection.
