Burmese Yun-De Incised Lacquer Box with Hintha Bird folk art lumberjack It bears the company name

It  bears the company name and location on the interior bottom of the box and I believe likely dates to the second decade of the 20th century

with just the right amount of wear

Burmese Yun-De Incised Lacquer Box with Hintha Bird folk art lumberjack It bears the company nameThis is a lovely small Burmese lacquer box decorated with yun de incised decoration, painstakingly executed by hand, one color at a time. The lid features what I believe is Hintha, also known as Hansa a mythological aquatic bird representing passage. I'd guess this piece dates to the mid 20th century. This box is in excellent shape inside and out, with a dark red lacquer interior. The box measures 4 1 4" across x 2 5 8" tall.
