A rectangular wood box features a tiered lid and small corner feet. Against a dark surface, the front panel is painted with gold, red, and white scenes. To the left, figures on horseback hunt deer; to the right, a walled city sits near a pond. Floral patterns decorate the lid's slanted edges, while a red band runs along the top. A metal clasp is fixed at the front center.
