from the help manual on box keyword,

2.2.2.1 Box ObjectThe box is one of the most common objects used. We try this
example in place of the sphere:

  box {
    <-1, 0,   -1>,  // Near lower left corner
    < 1, 0.5,  3>   // Far upper right corner
    texture {
      T_Stone25     // Pre-defined from stones.inc
      scale 4       // Scale by the same amount in all
                    // directions
    }
    rotate y*20     // Equivalent to "rotate <0,20,0>"
  }
