    Description

    beautiful, antique orange lacquered pewter tea tin/caddy. The caddy is is etched with possibly a story or poem or wise advise; unfortunately I can not read Chinese. Additionally the caddy is etched with plants, flowers, a bird, and an insect. The base is marked by the manufacturer. The caddy measures 7” tall, 5” wide, and 3” deep. The caddy has a lid and still a little tea inside. The top is a bit askew and dented (see photo). A few chips and minor scratches to lacquering, in overall good condition for its age.
