Posted on the 27 March 2011 by Lily Hydrangea

I came across this at the metropolitan museum of art last week when my husband noticed something amazing about this steel strongbox. he wanted to know how anyone managed to save this key for so many hundreds of years? I would really love to know too, I bet there are some interesting stories. check out the other interesting details on the box below. if you'd like to see more shadows or if you want to join in the fun, please visit  hey harriet's shadow shot sunday meme. a big thank you to tracy for hosting shadow shot sunday.also please see my post from yesterday if you are interested in mygiveaway
