Abstract: A shipping container is disclosed having a body wherein a cavity is formed, a lid adapted to close a top of the body and a support configured as a gimbal. The gimbal support has an outer cage configured to be fitted in the cavity and sized so as to contact the walls of the cavity, an inner cage restrained to the outer cage and rotatable relative thereto about at least one first rotation axis (A) and a cradle restrained to the inner cage and rotatable relative to the outer cage about at least one second rotation axis (B) perpendicular to the first rotation axis (A), the cradle being configured to receive and hold one or more objects.
