Three majestic horses with golden manes pull a sleigh through this wintry scene. Two overjoyed girls in the sleigh look on as one man plays an accordion in the back and the other holds the reigns in the front. Spots of silver adorn the vibrant colors of this box, adding an extra shimmer for a wintry effect. The sides of the box have a intricate pattern of silver and gold. This piece is made of high quality papier mache and has a hinge at the top. The interior is red lacquer. This box is signed with the title, year, village, and artist's name (Bonokin). It rests on four legs.
