Ronald Reagan White House Antique Japanese Lacquered Box Ex Christie's Estate Auction
Relic
A lovely and most unusual relic from the Family Residence within the Ronald Reagan White House, a late nineteenth-century Japanese lacquered box, designed in fluted "melon" shape and bearing a closely-fitted lid to complete the form that inspired it. This is a large box, measuring approx. 9.5 in. in diameter and approx. 8.5 in. with lid, in a traditional cinnabar glaze having a botanical design of trailing vines and fruit carved into it and then hand-painted, with gilt and a glossy black lacquer interior. In fine condition. Ex: Christies, "The Private Collection of President and Mrs. Reagan", 2016, where this and another box not nearly as impressive as this one fetched $3500!
This item comes with a Certificate from John Reznikoff, a premier authenticator for both major 3rd party authentication services, PSA and JSA (James Spence Authentications), as well as numerous auction houses.
