The interior of the bow is stamped with two square hallmarks: one containing a stylized monogram, possibly representing the letters A and L or A and C, and the second containing the words METAL over BLANC. The tongs are housed in a rectangular presentation case with a brown crocodile-patterned faux leather exterior and a dual-material interior comprising white satin and black velvet with a cream rope-twist border.
