Antique Chinese Export Black Lacquer Box / Tea Caddy

  
A very nice old Box / Tea Caddy. It is fitted with two metal canisters that are a bit beaten up.

I was going to bin them but i will send the box as i found it. I cant imagine anyone wanting to put tea in it, but it will be very useful for bits and bobs.

It is about 20cm long 14cm wide 16cm deep. The gilt decoration is rubbed. The photos are the best description.
