Satisfying and Sturdy Old Handmade Hinged Box in Green Paint plate with flowers I believe the whole bottom

I believe the whole bottom used to be covered in paper

This one is the right size to use as a table runner

and in which the word "friend" is clear

I really love the colors on Persian Qajar era pottery--super lush

Satisfying and Sturdy Old Handmade Hinged Box in Green Paint plate with flowers I believe the whole bottomNot fancy, but I really love this box, for its old soft green and dark green paint, and more inside, and for its unfussy form, with platform base, which makes it feel meant to be planted somewhere and routinely open and shut. I sort of want to see it filled with gleaming white chalk carefully stacked, to deliver delight with every lid lift, but perhaps more practically used for pens and pencils, which fit perfectly in it, or whatever. 7 5 8" l x 4 1
