This is a drawing of a decorative motif on a container. The image depicts a stylized, ornate floral design centered on the front face of a simple rectangular box with a lid. The floral motif consists of swirling patterns and various petal or leaf-like shapes radiating outward, which are drawn using fluid, curving lines. The top of the container features the inscription "S. & L. P. Norton, Bennington VT" and is adorned with handles on either side.
