Has anybody a guess what this box could be? (or rather, what's inside)
Context: A delegation visits the DuPont de Nemours HQ in Wilmington (Delaware/USA).
One side of the table (the guests) all have these little "boxes" with something metallic inside in front of them. One of these boxes is on the other side (where the hosts sit, or at least most of the hosts). So I'm guessing it's some kind of gift, but what is it?
