Hi Marcos,

I would like to see an image taken from a bit more distance and then cropped.  Your images seem to distort the shape and make it look awkward. It does appear to be carved lacquer, but I would like you to examine the area where it was chipped.  If you can't identify various layers there, then it is probably a very modern fake.  The two character incised mark is something that can be found on some Qianlong period lacquer SB's, but not often copied in the past 200 years.  Huh
