Hoping to preserve the artistic legacy handed down from his father, Fida Hussain crafts this petite box from weeping willow wood. The Indian artisan coves it with papier mache, and then sands and paints it carefully in exquisite detail. The red and gold heart-shaped box features a chinar leaf motif and a velvet lining to store small treasures.

I order this box and the round one and received them today. I have to say I am blown away by the beauty and craftsmanship of these little boxes! I got them to put jewelry gifts in but now Im very tempted to keep them for myself! Fida Hussain, you are very talented!

I recall my friend from India gave me an elephant decor when I moved away. I certainly can imagine these ornaments as symbolic of carrying one of the wise men that Christians celebrate at Epiphany (January 6).
