The national coat of arms of Mexico, the golden eagle, is represented on the front left of the box, perched next to intricately designed floral motifs. These large stylized designs wrap the exterior of the box which can be secured with a decorative key hasp (key included). Ornamental wooden bands on the top of the box allow it to open completely to reveal a carved wooden tray, inset into the box, holding dice and colorful poker chips. The tray can be removed to dispense items for a classic poker match. See less
