This elegant 19th century French wig box is a finely crafted example of Chinoiserie lacquerware, featuring a gracefully arched, hinged lid and hand-painted figural decoration. The lacquered wood surface is richly adorned with traditional Eastern-inspired motifs, accented by subtle gilding that enhances its historic charm. Original incised brass hardware includes the lock cover, hinges, and a delicately tooled knob.

Compact in form yet ornate in detail, this Chinoiserie lacquered box exemplifies the European fascination with the East during the 1800s. Whether displayed on a vanity, writing desk, or console, it adds a touch of exotic sophistication and 19th century French decorative arts to any curated space.
