Mom's Collection: In the late 1960s I collected all sorts of tobacco and candy tins and boxes, (stash boxes.) Most all of them were birthday, and Christmas presents from my mom. She would find them at the salvage shop she worked at. This tin was one of those presents, and it's fitting that I include it in "Mom's Collection". The tin is covered in cloth and nicely detailed. Other than that, I don't know much about it. It's (15 cm) tall

strange way of knotting is this a shrivasta ) the WAN is also in , point is is , INdia could be even JAPAn CHINESE
very nice
is it Peking glass i don,t know
try to break it in chinese if it is an equivalent of the social antroposofical XI XIANG JIE the so called good luck knotting , maybe the MIZUHIKI might help us, well we might loose but we never give in

mnemonics extrapolate zongguo jie
sorry mnemonics ( sorry board i am almost out oxycodin) regenerate on possible longevity
this is minyao cang = folk ware or folk collection it sounds derogative, but actually it aint
well i am not an embroidery expert but it looks like SILK ON JUTE the beads you have to judge yourself probably composite if it contains bubbles it is probably glass
the knotting is quite well to actually it got a stem protector
ti is extremely difficult to sample , because this is rare , so i sample this by means of baskets on chinese pinyin well there are thousands of them and almost they do knickle and dimes, because they are mid century but this one aint
so i sampled all the ALLEGED longevity marks, and the dating in the worst case scenario ( to be on the safe is 1920), well actually i already agreed a priory by design and the black coating i890-1920
IMO the design is a MUDAN MENGYA ZHONG , lets say in hillbilly english peony
actually my main important question is , is it a FEEL GOOD teacaddy
Mudan which represent good fortune and prosperity
the Swastik in hinduism , which means health and prosperity
and the ALLEGED distorted longevity , well this aint chinese wall markt 1950-
IMO this late fin de siecle with possible a social antroposofical meaning , it won,t make richbut is CERTAINLY no rubbish, well done
