Oblong shaped Besamim box with floral and foliage decorations adorning the covers. Two separate covers that swing open to reveal two compartments for two different types of spices. On one cover, the word ‘Besamim’ is written in Hebrew and the other has ‘Aizov’ written in Hebrew as well. Both compartments have the two distinct spices enclosed in the compartments that match the names on the covers, which were used by the Rebbe.

This Besamim box was used by the Rebbe for the Havdalah ceremony following the end of Shabbat towards the end of his lifetime.
