Cassone

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Cassone by Artist is a rectangular wooden box with a lid. The box has a dark brown color and appears to be made of wood. The top and bottom of the box are flat and have a simple molding around the edges. The front and back of the box feature a woven pattern made up of interlocking strips of wood, arranged in a crisscross design. A small metal hinge is visible on the front of the box, connecting the lid to the body. The box is sitting on a flat base that is slightly wider than the box itself. The background of the image is a plain gray color.
