This circular vinyl cover box is designed in a unique donut or "torus" shape, featuring a hollow center and a rich, polished black finish. The exterior is adorned with intricate Chinoiserie-style gilt illustrations, showcasing vibrant peonies in shades of gold and pale green, alongside two long-tailed phoenixes or exotic birds in mid-flight. A decorative metal butterfly-shaped clasp secures the hinged lid, while the lower rim is detailed with delicate gold-leaf swirling cloud motifs. When opened, the interior reveals a smooth, dark mahogany-toned finish, following the same ring-shaped channel as the exterior, suggesting it was crafted to hold specific ceremonial items, such as a traditional headpiece or a circular arrangement of jewelry.
