Scenes of winter fun wrap around the sides of this box, as a pair of woman fetch water from the village well. They will be done their chore soon, and can join in the fun! It seems the entire village has come out to enjoy the day, building snowmen, singing songs, feeding birds. generous metallic accents shimmer throughout. This box is made of high quality papier mache and is signed on the lid with the artist's name (Zolotareva) and village. There is a hinge at the top, and the interior is red lacquer. --BOX1462
