Box
Oval shaped box made of metal, decorated with enamel. The base of the box and the border of the lid are coated in dark blue enamel, with white dots of enamel on the lid. The lid is decorated with an engraving style image in black and white. The image depicts a classical figure receiving a laurel wreath with the word "peace" inside, while in the background is a sailing ship. The bottom section of the lid has broken with the enamel cracked and missing and the metal underneath crumpled. The rim and hinge of the box and lid are bare metal.
