Description Southeast Asian silver betel nut box modeled as a fish, its rounded body densely textured with repoussé scales and finely articulated fins. The vessel opens at the midline as a two-part form, preserving sculptural continuity, while the rhythmic surface pattern and compact mass reflect skilled late nineteenth-century silversmithing traditions.
