A square enamel casket features a flat top densely patterned with tiny concentric circles in shades of teal and deep blue. Thin silver-toned metal rims border the lid and base. The vertical sides are a bright royal blue, decorated with rows of pale blue flecks. The repetitive grid of circles creates a textured appearance, while the metallic frame defines the box's compact, geometric form.
