House-shaped box with lid. The cylindrical box is made of a thin sheet of brass that is joined at a seam held together with nails. It is decorated with a series of regularly spaced vertical lines, reminiscent of slats on a house. A removable cone shaped lid tops the box, and its rim fits snuggly over the box’s edge. The lid is decorated with patterns of lines of different lengths and at different angles, suggesting a straw roof. The top point of the box is bent slightly inward and has a small hole in the centre. The box sits on an attached bottomless base of the same construction. It has three rectangular holes cut into it, like small windows. It is also decorated with the slat motif.
