Nippon Porcelain Dresser or Powder Box

Feel yourself drifting on the water, then landing on the shore in front of a peaceful cottage, surrounded by gently swaying trees. Time to relax and calm the senses.

This lovely moss green powder box exudes calm with its soft matte color and peaceful hand painted scene. Tiny brown dots ring the neck and lid for added appeal - all of the dots are still in place. In fact, this little box is in very good condition; there are no chips, no cracks, no scratches in the glaze, no paint missing. It is marked in green with the M inside the wreath and "Hand Painted Nippon" (Mark #47 according to Joan Van Patten's Encyclopedias of Nippon Porcelain). It measures just under 4" in diameter at its widest point, and 2.25" high.

This truly is a lovely box, perfect for your dresser or your Nippon or powder box collection... it is just waiting to grant you serenity and calm.
