Fiziksel açıklama
Seventeen light wood panels carved in low relief with a dense pattern of floral scrolls and birds. The panels were most likely intended to be attached to either another piece of wood, or to one another in order to create a rectangular shaped box (the faint pencil marks on the reverse of each panel indicate the intended placement of each piece).
