The background of the case is dark brown, and the overall design is symmetrical. The case appears to be made of lacquerware, with a smooth, glossy finish. Two thin metal handles are visible at the top of the case, one on each side. The case is set against a beige background. The artist's work is titled "Case (Inrō) with Design of Flowering Carnations".
