Editorial Reviews: Use this stunning hand-etched lacquer box as an accent piece, jewelry box, or for storing other personal treasures. The artisan has embellished this unique piece with beautiful, delicately hand-etched red and blue floral motifs, complemented by gold and silver detailed designs, all made from natural pigments. The shiny black finish is produced through the application of seven layers of lacquer followed by a two-month drying process, achieving its rich luster. Northern Thai lacquerware is well known to interior designers worldwide, and is acclaimed for some of the globe's finest craftsmanship techniques. Lacquerware is created by applying the black resin of the "Lak" tree onto smoothly carved wood to give it a fine finish. Made from strong, durable mango wood, the box opens and closes smoothly thanks to a sturdy j-hinge mechanism and is securely closed with a gold front clasp. This unique home accessory is made by talented artisans in the village of Baan Thawai, located in the historical Golden Triangle region of northern Thailand, and will bring the time honored traditions of these craftsmen into any home or office space. This creation has been entirely handmade by skilled artisans using only the finest natural materials. Measures 7 inches wide x 4 inches long x 2.5 inches high.
