Rectangular box with flat lid decorated with vegetal scrolls in the corners and central border of mixtilinear profile in whose interior is represented a complex figurative scene with armed characters mounted on elephants. The motif of the warriors, although without elephants, is repeated, more simplified, on the front of the piece. It is clearly inspired by models of the past, reinterpreting and updating them to adapt them to the new tastes of the present work.
