- Pattern: Swan Boats
- Vintage: 1994
- Details: This is an absolutely beautiful carved trinket box. It has a romantic theme of Swan Boats on the lagoon at the Boston Public Gardens, (see below), a tradition that goes back 150 years! The carving detail is exceptional, it is in the 'Scrimshaw' style which is a highly detailed carving/engraving, traditionally done in bone or ivory, originated by whalers. This one, while not made of bone or ivory, is just as detailed, notice the bridge railings, the planks on the boat and faces on the swans, all clearly depicted in such a small box. This one is signed by the artist: "Kovago '94". The carving is only on the lid, the inside is lined with black velvet-like material and so is the underside. A truly great gift for a special someone. Could serve as a gift box for jewelry or other small item. Great for a shelf , desk or side table decor.
