Subject:Re: Chinese silver box?
Posted By: I.Nagy Thu, Oct 28, 2021
This is a rectangular silver ink box. The interior of the box is dark with patina and ink stone.
Inscription in my rough translation,
洗觴來舊雨 流咏見高風
I wash my old wine cup in the rain
High winds are looking at me while reciting poems
Right side,
春如吾兄請玩 - To my brother Chunru as plaything
Left side,
弟四泉敬贈 - With compliments from younger brother Sichuan
Back side,
北京 - Beijing
瑞珍 - Ruizhen (Auspicious treasure) - Maker's mark
Probably from late Qing Dynasty.
With regards,
I.Nagy
