Buried beauty: A lacquer treasure from Mawangdui

This lacquer vanity case is among the most exquisite finds from the Mawangdui Tombs, dating back to the mid-2nd century BC in central China's Hunan Province. Adorned with the classic cloud motif of the Han dynasty (206 BC-220 AD), it stands as a vivid testament to the extraordinary craftsmanship of its age.
