Oriental rice container. Wood and metal. China, early 20th century. Chinese rice storage container, made of carved and varnished wood in a reddish tone, with a flattened ovoid body and a flat lid, slightly raised towards the centre. The shoulders are clearly differentiated by an edge enhanced by the application of a metal moulding, similar to that which outlines the foot. Below the shoulders, on both sides, there are two metal handles in the form of an arch, with floral design fasteners. The lid is decorated with a central roundel of wood carved in lowered relief, combining an exterior border of geometric clouds with a double interior profile of mitered curves. In the centre, a small flattened knob with a flower at the base, matching the fasteners of the handles.
