+
+    Attributes
+    ----------
+    clearance
+        Set clearances between the embellishment and the box border. It can be either a
+        scalar value or a sequence of two/four values.
+
+        - a scalar value means a uniform clearance in all four directions.
+        - a sequence of two values means separate clearances in x- and y- directions.
+        - a sequence of four values means separate clearances for left/right/bottom/top.
+    fill
+        Fill for the box. Default is no fill.
+    pen
+        Pen attributes for the box outline.
+    radius
+        Draw a rounded rectangular borders instead of sharp. Passing a value with unit
+        to control the corner radius (default is ``"6p"``).
+    inner_gap
+        Gap between the outer and inner border. Default is ``"2p"``.
+    inner_pen
+        Pen attributes for the inner border. Default to :term:`MAP_DEFAULT_PEN`.
+    shading_offset
+        Place an offset background shaded region behind the box. A sequence of two
+        values (dx, dy) indicates the shift relative to the foreground frame. Default is
+        ``("4p", "-4p")``.
+    shading_fill
+        Fill for the shading region. Default is ``"gray50"``.
+
+    Examples
+    --------
+    >>> from pygmt.params import Box
