Not all Chinese exports are Junk. By Richard James Biddle
Well made and finished. In 50 years it will be very difficult to tell from an original. The quality of the bronze fittings was a happy surprise.Beautiful piece By dennis l. from Minnesota!
Actually I believe that this piece is a little bit more than the seller is explaining. It's beautiful shape and the reason it is made of soft leather is because it is a Chinese Pillow. Women often had their hair prepared in lavish lacquered styles. The pillow would lie at the crook of the neck and not disturb the hair when the women slept. The women could also protect their valuables by sleeping on them. A lovely piece. Old? I don't think so. Beautiful? Quite so. Very Elegant as a conversation piece.
