Abstract
This container has a removable lid. The lid's base color is a dull bronze, but each of its six sections presents a distinct design. These designs include a vase, a seat, dishes, and other household objects. These are vibrantly colored in red, green, blue, yellow, and brown. At the apex of the lid, a small bronze berry with leaves serves as a decorative handle for the lid. The container itself is decorated similarly to the lid, with six distinct household designs on each of its six sides. It is not perfectly round--each of the six sections bulges outwards, creating an overall flower shape. The interior and bottom of the container are a glazed ceramic blue. No sticker residue can be found.
