A snuffbox in a cartouche-shaped gold profiled setting, with a hinged lid. Under the lid, there is a compartment for tobacco. On the lid and the base made of mother-of-pearl, which is decorated with an inlay in the form of four-leaf clovers and dots in the piqué technique and with overlays with gold “piqué coulé” images of dolphins, a bird, a rabbit, shells and a stylized plant ornament on a black matte background, there are oval inserts of green and red jasper in a gold framing. On the front side of the lid, there is a thumbpiece for opening with a relief plant ornament. On the setting made of gold, chased scenes depicting a fox and two birds alternate with leafy patterns and a net ornament.
