A rectangular stoneware box is covered in a dense, impressed herringbone pattern of creamy beige and dark brown. The lid features four angled sides sloping toward a flat top. A horizontal line separates the lid and base, accented by dark brown glaze along the edges. Several reddish-brown, leaf-like shapes scatter across the top and front. The textured surface gives the vessel a tactile, woven-looking finish within a muted, earthy color palette.
