Description: | A smoking box, made from lacquered rosewood. It contains a silver jar and cover, and a cylindrical canister and cover. The open top silver jar is a brazier or hibachi for lighting a pipe. The smaller jar may have been intended for tobacco. Below are two short and one long drawers, the handles of which are small insects made from metal. It has a metal carrying handle, (one hinge broken). Lacquered and decorated with a farmyard landscape. On the facing side are two hinges which could support a pipe. | Source: | Manchester Museum | Identifier: | mm.emu.ecatalogue.humanities.161899 | Go to resource |
