Purple Violets Mango Wood Decorative Box Pair
Nantana Sompamitre creates this pair of delightful boxes by carving mango wood into spheres. A violet motif adorns their smooth, lacquered surfaces. Sompamitre carves the desired shape and coats it with lacquer. Once dried it is polished, and another coat is applied – up to twenty times – before as many six coats of pure lacquer are present. The final layer is polished with powdered fired clay. Then the motifs are etched with a technique called lai kad (dug-out pattern) and painted.
- Mango wood
- Clean with a soft, dry cloth
- Set of 2 bowls
- Do not use abrasives
- Handmade in & fairly-traded from Thailand
