Object description

Ask med lock.

Insidan är förgylld. Locket och askens sidor har dubbla väggar, och de yttre av dessa har dekorerats genom ciselering. Ask och lock har dekorerats med turkosa och gröna mindre pärlor. Locket har varit dekorerat med fyra större pärlor av vilka endast två återstår. Mitt på locket finns en dekoration av jade. Denna dekoration har lossnat från sin plats, och den har gått i två delar, men har åter lagats i oktober 1996. Asken har delvis svartnat.

I askens botten finns en CHINA-stämpel, och en papperslapp med kinesiska tecken.

"Skål med lock. Av mässing med inlagda stenar och jade. Sådana användes i templen på altarborden för förvaring av offerbröd." (MLK)

Important to know about the information in the online collection database

Users of the database are warned that some records may include language or terminology dating from the 19th and 20th centuries which depicted people in ways that are obsolete and/or offensive. We are conscious that the inclusion of such terminology is problematic. As an institution, we have chosen to include this historic information in our database because it is part of the documentation for the object, photograph, or archival item. Where known, objects associated with, or photographs depicting, ritual or ceremonial activity have been hidden in the publicly accessible database as there may be restrictions relating to the age, gender, initiation and ceremonial status or clan of the person who may see them. The database may also include the names of deceased persons, which could cause sadness or distress, particularly to relatives of these people.
