Container

This circular wooden container for day-to-day household goods with ornate brass hinges, a latch and a handle literally imitates the form of a fluted pumpkin or a melon.
Interestingly, forms of fruits such as mangoes, coconuts, and melons and vegetables such as brinjals, tori, paprika etc have inspired, all over India, the shapes and designs for domestic containers, especially for betel leaves, lime and tobacco and even for coins.
