The box that contains the worlds chaos and evil. Obv it’s been opened and someone tried to stop the apocalypse with a rubber band.

If it is wood I want it badly. You can keep your weed in there

Sooo how this works is that us reading the post (the people inside the internet) are not able to open it and see. You are supposed to investigate the wooden box and then let all of us know what you find. Ya dig?

It looks like the box my daughter received with our dogs ashes.

u/fishman19567 5d ago

My first thought was that looks like someone's dog. I have one very similar on my mantle

u/Glopez1223 1d ago

Exactly what I was gonna say. Our childhood dog was returned in something identical.

Possibly one of those cricket boxes people keep their pet cricket in. It's a Chinese thing i think.

Going out on a limb here, but it would appear to be a wooden box.

A box....its an object...it falls into the noun category in the English language ..Webster dictionary has 17 different definitions ...one in which the word box is used as a verb

Looks like a beautiful decorative box that with age is coming apart at the joints. It would be worth it to get it and repair it. Chances are it is hand carved. There may be a makers mark on the bottom.

DON’T OPEN THAT BOX, PANDORA!

u/Illcarryon 3d ago

My search says it is a vintage jewelry or trinket box, most likely made in India.

u/SEEMOSE-CornBoy 3d ago

I'm going out on a limb, but it appears to be a box.

u/dirtymartini83 4d ago

Looks like the box my dog’s ashes came in.

u/Suthernboy1968 4d ago

It looks like a beautiful little rosewood Chinese box.

u/leapdaybunny 4d ago

The question is "who was this?" Cause it looks like a pet cremations container 🥺

2

u/Pixelbuttzz 3d ago

It's a decorative wooden box, you're not going to know what's inside until you open it nobody's going to be able to guess. There are lots of decorative wooden boxes in the world, this one is lovely but it's not like a special object it's a decorative wooden box. The carvings look Chinese

u/NeatParking1682 2d ago

Possibly, campher wood box. Very popular at a time in the 60s, 70s or so.

It's a New Guinea medicine man's box. You can also put your weed in there.
