Hearts in the Corners, Sweet Old Folk Art Frame with Original Glass antique Japanese lacquer This old box would feel

This old box would feel right at home in a library or study filled with old books

especially the soulful eyes

the second two in pencil--which I think do a pretty fantastic job bringing the story to life

with two completed pieces per leaf plus their backsides visible from the opposite direction--so one could take this apart and have 57 full page pieces total with blank reverse sides

Really a sweet little piece

Hearts in the Corners, Sweet Old Folk Art Frame with Original Glass antique Japanese lacquer This old box would feelA sweet one, and January seems the right time for finally framing some things that have been sitting in a pile. Nice size, original glass, made with love for sure, earlyish 20th century I believe. 9 3 4" x 9 5 16" x 3 4". Opening 6 3 4" x 5 3 4". Good condition, sturdy and sound, with original glass. Eye hooks in place on the back for wiring and hanging vertically, but easy to move them and hang horizontally.
