Vesterheim, Luther College Collection #0205 – Gift of Ella Espeseth

Specially made to hold a woman’s headdress, this triangular box displays five different solar motifs on its top, surrounded by zigzags. More zigzags protect its sides. These symbols mirror those embroidered on the headdress that was kept inside.
