Here's my Chinese lunch box. I like this one because it is really rustic, with metal pieces tacked on to make repairs over the years.

I bought this out of a guy's van who was selling a variety of pieces from what I think was a failed Chinese antiques business. I bought this box for $15 and a nice alter for $30
