Acrylic is the broad term for a range of thermoplastics. Lucite is a type of acrylic, that is of particularly high quality. Acrylic is a generic term and is often marketed under the brand name Plexiglass. On the other hand, Lucite—and this explains why we make a point of capitalizing the word— is actually a brand name.

The back piece of lucite seems to have been reapplied at some point, but it is difficult to see unless closely examined and doesn't affect the functionality or beauty and charm of the box.
