清十九世紀 象牙鏤雕安居圖花式蓋盒

skilfully carved with rounded sides resting on a circular base supported on four short feet, the sides divided into eight sections with raised floral bands, reticulated with figural scenes, all delicately picked out against a striated diapered ground, the cover similarly reticulated with fine scrollwork and figural landscapes, all surmounted by a gnarled sprig finial

A tiered-box with similar treatment of the ivory in the collection of the Palace Museum, Taipei, was included in the museum's exhibition Splendid Treasures, A Hundred Masterpieces of The National Palace Museum on Parade, Taipei, 2011, cat. no. 59.
