A girl depicted on the box is a kind fairy who helps nature to avoid freezing, winter usually follows her. Fluffy snowflakes help to do that and nights become purely white at the moment she comes. Trees and flowers are always safe under white snow cover.
Most part of the composition shines with mother-of-pearl inlays set into different parts of the scene. The box's exterior is fully decorated. The box's lid can be opened with the help of a rhinestone attached to the lid's side.
The box is constructed from paper-mache. Traditionally, the box's interior is covered with red lacquer. On the lid's interior there is also written in gold the title of the work, Fedoskino, Knyazev Sergey and the year of 2014.
