Oriental Lacquer Box in the form of a Duck
Price: £25
This is an amusing trinket box in the form of a duck made from black lacquer with gilt decoration, the lid with wings and a feathered tail and the head with gilt eyes and beak. The base has a simple band of a repeating gilt geometric design. The form resembles the well known Chinese export porcelain 'goose' tureens made in the eighteenth century and since the lacquer technique here resembles that of other contemporary Chinese pieces a provenance from China seems likely. The whimsical style also suggests a date of manufacture in the 1960s or 1970s.

This is a beautiful pair of frames from the British Raj occupation of India that lasted between 1858 and 1947. They are carved wood in the typical Mughal style with carved flowers with lattice work.

Stunning Chinese export silver buckle or pendant
Price: £75
This is a very beautiful large Chinese export silver buckle or pendant. Shown here strung onto some silk ribbon. It has a very detailed dragon motif set on a checkboard background.

It is an interesting piece no matter how you look at it!
Set of 4 Chinese Scroll Weights
Price: £25
This is a very nice set of four scroll weights with different images on the front and the zodiac on the back. They don't seem to be silver but rather silver metal.
