Finely crafted silver boxes called bonbonnieres, after the French word, were given as mementos to invited guests of Imperial banquets and state ceremonies from the late 1800s. Today, the custom of giving presentation boxes is not limited to the Imperial family, but has been adopted by corporations and ordinary people to commemorate the founding of a company or a wedding, or an auspicious event.
This box in the shape of a joined oak leaf box with an Imperial crest was given on the second day of the commemoration of Emperor Taisho's enthronement ceremony on November 17th 1915. On this day 2800 people attended and 4 different craftsmen's studios were employed for the bonbonnieres and 4 different designs were made.
Signed Hattori and marked with the jungin (pure silver) seal.

"The track to the reserve is marked by a almost unbroken line of box thorns. This was a Government Reserve for travelling stock. Further upstream is another reserve, at the confluence of Dry Creek and Skeleton Creek. A third water hole is another 200 metres north, on Dry Creek.
Both are archaeological significant as they were used by aboriginals." - W.C.C. 1997 Study.
