    Description

    I HAVE THIS BEAUTIFUL "PO SHUN LEONG'S" EARLY ART,  HANDCRAFTED WOODEN BOX and I'M INCLUDING A HARDBACK BOOK OF HIS INCREDIBLE WOODEN CREATIONS. THIS BOX IS IN GREAT CONDITION AND IS SIGNED ON THE BOTTOM BY PO SHUN, IN HIS UNIQUE SIGNATURE,  USING DOTS. THE BOTTOM ALSO HAS THE YEAR MADE "88" and THE KINDS OF WOOD HE USED. IN THIS CASE, NARRA and WENGE WOOD.  THIS BOX IS 6" TALL. 6.75" WIDE AND 3.75" DEEP.  THERE ARE 4 DRAWERS/COMPARTMENTS THAT SWING LEFT AND RIGHT, TO THE SIDE. THE SWING AWAY FEATURES ARE A SIGNATURE DESIGN BY PO SHUN AND  AS YOU WILL SEE, IN THE BOOK, HIS BOXES HAVE EVOLVED INTO ABSOLUTELY STUNNING WORKS OF ART. SOME OF HIS PIECES ARE IN MUSEUMS AND ONE DISPLAYED IN THE WHITE HOUSE. HE HAS WON MANY AWARDS FOR HIS CRAFT/ART.  THIS IS ONE OF HIS VERY EARLY PIECES.  THE CONDITION IS EXCELLENT WITH SMOOTH ROUNDED EDGES ON THE TOP PIECE. THE SWING AWAY DRAWERS ARE LINED WITH RAYON POWDER FLOCKING. THERE ARE ACTUALLY 6 COMARTMENTS IN ALL, AS UNDER THE MIDDLE DRAWERS, THERE ARE  OPEN COMPARTMENTS AS WELL. THE BEAUTIFUL WOOD TONES ARE A LOVELY, WARM, REDDISH BROWN, SIMILAR TO CHERRY OR MAPLE.
    THE FRONT AND SIDES HAVE UNIQUE LINES/DESIGNS. VERY NICE!  PLEASE (SEE LINK FOR DR. LORI APPRAISAL BELOW)
    THE HARD BOUND BOOK IS,
    "PO SHUN DELONG ~ ART BOXES, by TONY LYDGATE".   PUBLISHED IN 1998. AND IS 128 PAGES.  THIS COPY IS IN "GOOD CONDITION."  IT WAS ACTUALLY A LIBRARY BOOK, SO THE OUTSIDE COVER SHOWS A BIT OF WEAR, BUT THE INSIDE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. NO BENT PAGES, NO WRITING AND BEAUTIFUL VIVID PHOTOS OF PO SHUN'S AMAZING WOODEN WORKS OF ART.  THE BOOK IS A HISTORY OF THE ARTIST AND HIS JOURNEY TO HIS PIECES BECOMING SO SOUGHT AFTER. THE BOOK HAS PHOTOS OF THE ARTIST AND HIS WIFE, WHO HELPS HIM WITH THE FINISHING PROCESS OF EACH PIECE. THIS EARLY PIECE WOULD BE PERFECT FOR A COLLECTOR, TO COMPARE THIS ONE, TO PO SHUNS INTRICATE PIECES OF LATER YEARS AND HE IS STILL CREATING.  PLEASE SEE PHOTOS FOR MORE DETAIL.  I SHIP WITH USPS PRIORITY MAIL AND I PACK VERY CAREFULLY....BUYER PAYS SHIPPING .
