Handmade Wood Floral Decorative Box by Indian Artisan 'Midnight Charm'

Description

This handmade decorative box gleams with the bright silvery contrast of a hand-painted chinar leaf motif against an ebony background. Two yellow birds sing to each other on the center of the lid, adding a touch of love to the alluring piece. Indian artisan Sajad handcrafts the wooden box before applying papier mache to the exterior. When dry, he expertly paints the minute natural pattern, inspired by his love of blending the modern with the traditional.
