About the Item

This square container features a domed lid adorned with a finely modeled polar bear figurine as the finial — a distinctive detail that brings character and whimsy to the design. The perimeter of the lid is decorated with a beaded edge, while the base shows subtle engraved arch motifs on each side, resting on four low feet. A beautiful blend of Nordic minimalism and stylized animal form, typical of Swedish Art Deco or Swedish Grace.
