Vintage Sarreid Black Lavquer Hand Painted Buddhist Jewelry Box Lotus Vajra Rare

This is a vintage Sarreid-style black lacquer jewelry / document box, beautifully hand-painted with traditional Buddhist lotus blossoms and a central Vajra-inspired mandala motif. The symmetrical patterning and muted jewel-tone palette point to mid-century imports made for high-end décor shops and interior designers.

The box features:
• Deep black lacquer body
• Hand-applied floral and dharmic motifs in red, gold, teal, and earthy tones
• Aged brass hardware and traditional folding hinge design
• Interior finished in matte black, clean and functional
• Large capacity — perfect for jewelry, keepsakes, tarot, altar items, or dresser décor.

This piece shows light wear consistent with age (small lacquer flakes at edges, minor rubbing), but still presents extremely well on display. The hand-painted top has that sought-after aged pigment glow collectors look for.

If you stage this with candles or mixed metals, it punches way above typical décor value.
