Doosje bij draagpenning van het huwelijk van prinses Beatrix en Claus before 1966

This little box was created by an anonymous maker to house a commemorative coin for the marriage of Princess Beatrix and Claus in 1966. I imagine that the person who made it probably had their own wedding box once upon a time, or maybe they dreamed about having one. Did they get married, I wonder? Did they meet someone, or did they decide to remain single? There’s a bit of sadness to it somehow, it makes you think about time. We don't know who this person was, but it seems important to pause and reflect on their life and work and the way they chose to spend their time. After all, we are all in this ongoing exchange of ideas, across time, inspiring one another’s creativity.
