A Wooden Trinket Box Featuring Beatrix Potter Illustrations - A wooden trinket box finished in a yellow-toned wash, featuring decoupage or printed illustrations after the watercolours of Beatrix Potter. The hinged lid depicts scenes from The Tale of Jemima Puddle-Duck, showing the title character in her signature blue shawl and bonnet meeting a fox, with a small blue bird perched in the tree above. The front side panel shows Jemima Puddle-Duck with a brood of ducklings near a farmhouse interior featuring a dresser and barrel. The box is constructed with two brass-toned butt hinges and is lined throughout the interior with dark green velvet. A small orange adhesive rectangular price sticker is present on the upper left corner of the lid, but the digits are not legible. No maker’s name, brand label, or country-of-origin marks are visible on the interior or exterior surfaces.
