The interior of the box is fitted with a removable ita (baseboard) containing the suzuri (ink-grinding stone) and a silvered-metal suiteki (water-dropper) in the form of a lobed kettle.
The exterior of the inrobuta (flush-fitting) lid of the ryoshibako is similarly decorated (to the suzuribako) with a matching Chinese landscape design extending over the sides of the box, the inside of the lid lacquered with the same wild flowers. The suzuribako jhas wood storage box (tomobako) with an attached inscribed paper label. The suzuribako measures 5cm x 26.1cm x 23.7cm (2in x 10¼in x 9 5/16in); the ryoshibako 15.2cm x 46.5cm x 35.2cm (6in x 18¼in x 13¾in).
