Beautiful Antique Burmese Lacquer Betel Box with Interior Tray bird on fence and one more equidistant up

and one more equidistant up from the bottom

perhaps one might store one's college souvenir in this

Beautiful Antique Burmese Lacquer Betel Box with Interior Tray bird on fence and one more equidistant upI am a huge fan of Burmese lacquerware betel boxes, but it has been a long time since I found an old one in nice condition until spotting this one on a quick twirl through the Hudson River Valley this past week. I find this cinnabar color to be perhaps the most beautiful color in existence, and while some Burmese "yun" lacquer features elaborate incised figural imagery, I'm partial to the matte surface and overall patterning on one like this.
