Summary
A rectangular varnished wooden box. The lid is painted and shows a pink ship on a green sea, the top half of a man in the water and the coastline in the distance. There is a screw in the bottom right-hand corner which enables the bottom half of the lid to swing open along the line of the top of the plume of smoke emitting from the funnel.
