Box, patch box
Patch box made of metal with enamel decoration. Consists of a circular lid on a cylindrical base that tapers towards the bottom. The base of the box is coated in turquoise coloured enamel. The lid is a full colour scene of a shepherd in a classical landscape. The rim and hinge of the box are bare metal. The enamel is damaged in some places on both the lid and the base, especially where it meets the metal rim.
