Dear Peter and Stan,

Until last month I was convinced that this tea canister was entirely hand painted and from the Republic period, now I have some doubts... your expert opinion would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

Difficult to tell from the pictures alone if the tea caddy itself is old, but the decoration is something more recent. Such face features and face colorations, etc. are at the most a few decades old.

Thank you Peter, you have confirmed my suspicions.
