Chinese box and lid with Rooster pattern

Pretty Chinese porcelain box

In this vintage Chinese porcelain box from Hong Kong (1980s-1990s), the rooster stands out as a luminous, almost theatrical figure, announcing the new day in a burst of hand-painted colors.

An animal of vigilance and renewal, it embodies a strong symbolic presence here, inheriting Asian iconographic traditions. Its detailed plumage, bold lines, and proud posture evoke the early morning hours when the world slowly awakens.

The lid extends this scene like a protective casing, enclosing a fragment of a story in a harmonious form. The box thus becomes an enclosed, almost sacred space, where the motif unfolds like a contained narrative.

On the reverse, the stamp depicting the Chinese figure wearing the Futou hat recalls the administrative and cultural codes of imperial China, anchoring the object in an ancient tradition.

This beautiful object from the exclusive collection of Betjeman and Barton is part of a vision of tea and objects as the art of travel and memory.

More than just a box, it becomes a small silent theater, a sunrise frozen in porcelain, where every detail tells of an Asia between tradition, ritual, and everyday poetry.
