Box in Form of Lotus Leaf (lid)
A shallow, lobed ivory dish, its rim undulating like a leaf, carries a raised relief of a lotus leaf and bud near its center. Fine ridges radiate across the pale, warm-toned interior, and the carving is softly lit against a dark studio backdrop.
Look closer: A small red handwritten accession number is inked near the upper right rim.
