Details

Gold and purple flowers dance across a midnight black base on Fida Hussain's gorgeous papier mache box. The Indian artisan begins by pasting layers of paper around an egg-shaped mold before hand painting the dried surface with a shimmering floral motif on a black background. Inside, a glossy black coating provides a discreet place for coins, trinkets, and baubles.
