Star Lot : A beautiful and vastly detailed 19th century Chinese Cao Puzzle ball, which features a profuse hand carved foliate and floral exterior. A truly remarkable item. Diameter: 5cm. Weight: 44 grams.

"Cao" refers to beautiful, hand-carved orbs that nest inside each other, such that the inner ones are free-floating. Each layer has holes evenly distributed across its thin surface, simultaneously concealing and revealing the artistry beneath.
