Antique Acupuncturist's Case for Needles and Medicine
A Beautifully and Artfully Rendered Korean Acupuncture Case for Needles and Medicine, with gorgeous and individually hand-engraved panels of fine detail with dragons, rabbits, and birds surrounded by writhing trees and flora, symbols of love, health, longevity, and good fortune, topped by a plum blossom on the lid, symbolizing courage. It opens up to reveal a bottom section for acupuncture needles and a top section for medicinal herbs, as seen in the second photo here. The chain is built into the piece. 4.75 inches, 12 cm; including chain: 6.75 inches, 17 cm.
