About this work
Oblong, with rounded corners, vertical sides curved, featuring winged, nude female: she is poised, legs slightly bent, on lily pads, framed by flower and leafy tendrils. Her hair flows beneath her waist, wings resemble dragonfly's wings, two insect-like antennae on top of her head. Reverse surface has undulating curves but is undecorated. Lid hinged on side. Striker recessed into bottom.
