Really a terrific object that would be great on the desk sitting atop incoming or outgoing mail

A terrific gift for a lover of mid-century Scandinavian ceramics

maybe filled with a few bags of dried beans just waiting to be cooked

just a couple of small brown stains that show against the white gaze on the back side

or to fill with a couple of little treasures and give as a gift basket
