The exterior features a dark, smooth frame, constructed of a material resembling enameled metal or synthetic resin, surrounding a central decorative panel. The panel displays a miniature scene executed in the Rococo or fête galante style, depicting a courting couple resting in a pastoral landscape, with a putto visible above them. The interior is constructed of gold-toned metal and is fitted with two yellow elastic retaining straps secured by small metal brackets. This style of decorative case is commonly associated with vintage continental European production. No visible maker’s marks or textual inscriptions are present.
