Verified profile

Approximately square box, lid with rounded edges that matches the container. The decoration stands out on the black lacquered surface in three golden shades, of which a brighter yellow (leaf) and a more opaque tending to gray. It develops on the four sides of the box with the slightly varied design of flowering chrysanthemum plants around a bamboo fence. On the lid, a similar figure is repeated on two out of phase registers. The inside of the box has a reddish and uniform Nashiji lacquer, with gold edges.
