In A Nutshell Antiques and Interiors has dated this piece to the 19th Century.
It is in its original black paint decorated with gilt Chinese lettering and symbols. It has a good quality hinged mahogany lid.
It is in good condition for its age and displays very well. There are various dents and dinks and some minor losses to the paint in places but nothing detrimental or above what we would expect on something like this. There is some corrosion and rust around the base but the bottom of the canister is raised up from the floor so there aren’t any holes or corrosion on the inside.
The best description comes from the photographs so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions just ask.
