Case (Inrō) with Design of Mountain Landscape and Geese Flying
Rectangular, dark-colored case with rounded corners and a loop at the top. The case is divided into two sections horizontally. The top section depicts a mountain range with a pointed peak on the left side and a more rounded peak on the right. A body of water with a shoreline and several structures runs along the bottom. A flock of geese flies in a V-formation over the water on both panels. The left panel shows the geese flying to the right; the right panel shows them flying to the left. The case is made of a textured material, possibly metal. A red and white cord is visible at the bottom. Background is a solid beige color.
