The front of the canister presents as the first floor of "The Granary", featuring a central door with windows on either side and a central cartouche reading "RICE" surrounded by scrolling rose pink and green flowering vines.  This design continues around the remaining three sides of the canister.  The lid mimics a Mansard roof in pink with three dormer windows on front and one on each side of the lid.  A silicone gasket on the interior of the lid helps to form a seal.  Marked on bottom in gold cursive font "The Lenox Village Canisters".  Below this in block letters also gold, "FINE PORCELAIN" with the Lenox logo and copyright, dated 1992.  Small paper label still intact.  Underside corner of lid marked in black "RICE".
