Vintage Peanut-Shaped Ceramic Trinket Box with Kangxi Mark

This delightful vintage ceramic trinket box, crafted in the unique shape of a peanut, showcases a detailed, textured surface that captures the look of a real peanut shell. Marked with "" (Kangxi Nian Zhi, "Made in the Kangxi Period"), this piece is inspired by traditional Chinese craftsmanship, though it is a vintage reproduction rather than an authentic antique from the Kangxi period (1661-1722). The use of reign marks on decorative ceramics like this one became popular in the mid-20th century, adding cultural charm while appealing to collectors of Chinese-inspired wares.

In excellent vintage condition with no chips or cracks, this trinket box is both whimsical and functional, perfect for storing small treasures, jewellery, or keepsakes. Molded for intricate detail and consistent quality, it measures approximately 9.5 cm by 4.5 cm by 4.5 cm with the lid. This charming piece, reminiscent of similar novelty designs by brands like Tiffany & Co., makes a unique addition to any display or vintage collection.
