Description

A stained wooden jewelry box with a drawer in the bottom and 16 small compartments in the top. The inside of the top is lined with red velvet which has wear marks from when things were placed in the compartments and rubbed against it. The drawer has a metal pull tab to open it, and does not close all the way. There is an empty spot on the top of the box where a metal piece may once have been inserted. The box has some scratches on the outside but the interior, including the hinges and latch, are in good condition.
