This jewelry box, crafted on a copper body with cloisonné enamel decoration, is shaped in the form of a folding book. The cover depicts the traditional Chinese theme “Return in Glory” (Yi Jin Huan Xiang) — the triumphant scholar returning to his hometown, surrounded by attendants and children on horseback, with pavilions and lush garden scenery. The composition is rich yet balanced, with figures rendered in vivid enamel colors on a bright blue ground. The borders are framed with scrolling floral designs. Made during the Republic period, this box served both as a practical jewelry container and a refined scholar’s ornament, symbolizing success and honor.
