A Miracle Box is a magical jewelry box used for containing dormant Miraculouses when they are not in use. Each box is linked to a specified owner and changes in accordance with its new guardian's desires and expectations, as well as containing a whole parallel world for kwamis within.
Appearance[]
The standard Miracle box is geometric shaped prism with the symbol of the Order of the Guardians on top. There is a lid on top which opens to reveal a top compartment of the box, there are also a number of side drawers.
Abilities[]
However, a Miracle Box can change its form in order to suit the Guardian who owns it. Furthermore, a Miracle Box can take on new properties when it is passed on to a new Guardian, reflecting the Guardians character. For example, when the Chinese Miracle Box was in the possession of the Order of the Guardian's, the Kwamis were unable to get out of the box unless their Miraculous was entrusted to a holder, because they have a rule against Kwamis living outside their Miracle Box due to the destructive potential of their cosmic magical powers. However, when Marinette became Guardian of the box, she was able to set all the Kwamis free by simply pushing a button at the top. This is because she saw no reason to keep the Kwamis in the box or felt sympathy for their restricted freedom. According to Tikki, the box had become just like Marinette now that she was Guardian, "full of surprises".
Through unknown divine or magical means according to Tikki in "Truth", the Mother Miracle Box contains a whole entire universe where the kwamis gather, it's likely all the other boxes contain a universe as well.
Succession Rights[]
Throughout the series, there were three ways someone could obtain a Miracle Box: one is through guardian training as someone becomes a guardian's successor while the other could involve stealing as Hawk Moth stole the box from Master Fu in "Miracle Queen". The only other way a guardian could obtain a miracle box without going through the initiation spell is in the state emergency (in Master Fu's case in "Feast")
Yet it's unknown how the succession works if a guardian dies while in charge of a Miracle Box but has no successor or if two or more guardians can be assigned to guard a miracle box. If in the event there is no Miracle Box or by certain circumstances if possible it is destroyed, it's unknown if the guardian responsible for the box will retain their status or not.
In "Destruction," when a guardian is assigned a Miracle Box their true identity becomes a secret, much like the holders of the miraculous that are in the box they guard. This is to prevent the guardian from being discovered by anyone who may potentially want to steal any of the Miraculouses.

Trivia[]
- The Prodigious used to be kept in a similar box. Since the former is a prototype of the miraculouses, it's possible the latter is a prototype of the Miracle Boxes.
- It's unknown if the spell will apply if said guardian is protecting a Miraculous that isn't from their box.
