Have a look at this beautiful gem:

Lidded Box, showing Thunderbird, Eagle, Owl and Raven by female master artist Sarah Robertson. 

The bentwood style box is carved all around, on all 4 sides, the painting in powerful black and red against the gorgeous yellow of the pine, so clean with very deep lines. The expression and detailing in the characters itself is gorgeous. It's signed underneath.  Sarah is fully hand crafting these boxes, they are bent on 3 corners and glued on one corner (you can see the glue a little from the outside - please have a close look at the images). The box is signed underneath. 

Measurements: top of lid: 5 1/2" x 5 1/2", 5" tall, the opening measured on the inside is 3" x 3"
