In this box, a lad holds a basket of berries, which seems to brush ever so slightly against the arm of the young lady. Just looking at their faces, you can tell the two are clearly enjoying each other company.

The box has a gold and silver ornament on the top, and a gold one along the sides. The box sits flat and has a hinge at the top. The interior is red. Signed with the initials of the artist, village and title. Very sweet box that would be perfect to present to a significant other with a small piece of jewelry inside. (But careful, they may like the box better than the jewelry!)
