Description
This small rectangular wooden casket is composed of four corner posts joined by boards and by a lid which slides in the grooves incorporated in three of the boards. All these elements are fixed by small nail punches which are almost invisible. On the clear wood, one sees lines imitating the structure of imaginary wood. The casket, whose provenance is unknown, dates from the Middle Kingdom.
