The image shows a gold snuffbox with a scene etched on the lid. The snuffbox is circular and gold-colored, made of metal, likely gold. The lid features an etched scene depicting several figures in ancient-style clothing. The scene shows a seated figure on the right side and two figures on the left, one standing, and another bending over. The standing figure holds a long, thin object. In the background, several objects are visible, including a building with columns and a tent-like structure with curtains. The box has a small lip around the edge and a slight sheen. The background of the image is a solid gray color. The snuffbox appears to be the work of Myer Myers, titled "Snuffbox".
