This covered box stands out for its unique form, design, and colour scheme. The prominent use of cobalt blue suggests a resemblance to late Ming dynasty pieces, as during the Kangxi period, underglaze blue was less common in the famille verte palette. The box's shape bears similarities to Japanese vessels. The inclusion of applied flowers, fruits, or leaves is uncommon for Chinese pieces of this period and brings to mind early European porcelains, such as those produced at Meissen in the 1710s, as well as contemporaneous Japanese ceramics. See a Kakiemon-style porcelain tripod incense burner and cover, 17th/18th century, illustrated in China Without Dragons: Rare Pieces from Oriental Ceramic Society Members, London, 2016, p.308, no.182.
