The snake wraps itself around the box as it slides through the water. The head of the snake extends off the box and can be used to open the lid. Protruding from a rock in the corner is a wire tail suggesting some small creature hiding from the snake's view. These boxes were created on a whim since I've always enjoyed polka dots. They remind me of my beloved godmother who I thought owned a polka dot dress in every color.

Dear Guest, I create my boxes to be both functional and beautiful to behold. They have been used and enjoyed for many years in my home and the homes of my collectors. However, they are fragile objects that will break if dropped or handled harshly. My husband John and I live with a frisky cat that climbs furniture, and two large active dogs, one of whom has a whip for a tail. The only problem I've encountered so far was from a cleaning woman who I failed to caution about using a gentle hand when cleaning the boxes, and who succeeded in breaking the chains on half of those she vigorously cleaned.
