Jewellery Box

In a small exhibition I noticed a small jewellery box. It was made out of porcelain, had a fine painting of peacocks on the lid and had a gold clip to shut it. The key words for it would be delicate, pure and fragile. I could imagine it being on a young women's dressing table holding a pair of pearl earrings. If this box as on an antique stall in Portobello market I would have walked right passed it or if I saw it I probably wouldn't have stopped thinking it was just another imitation of vintage jewellery boxes.
