The Object

While I was in the Boijmans Museum for choosing 8 different objects to show Jon in the introduction week on the first day, I photographed these two items which I really liked. I thought that these objects were very interesting to know more about. When I saw it the first time, i had actually no idea what this could be. Maybe a sort of box? I could not read the drawings on this object very well. I could see that there were drawings, but not what they are about. Also the silverwork around the object was very shiny and detailed.

When I talked about this object with Jon he told me that this object was made out of coconut wood.
