Rectangular jewelry or trinket box made of red Swanton marble. Each side of the box is convex with four facets, as is the lid. The underside of the lid is completely flat, allowing it to slide freely across the top of the box. The center of the lid has a conical knob that flares toward the top. The interior is lined with low-pile velvet.
