bright boxes

Every morning is better with a tasty cup of tea, even more so if the Herrera Perlaza Family Artisans' newest accessory is there to transform your drinks into magical experiences. Crafted in Costa Rica, this pinewood tea box has six slots masterfully protected by a glass cover featuring a precious butterfly-themed mosaic artwork whose bright hues exude a spring aura.

Green and bright hues take you on a little tour around the essence of spring. Crafted by Mohammad Hussain Baba in India, this papier mache jewelry box portrays a fresh bouquet painted by hand on a white base hue. The interior is lined with faux velvet, allowing extra glamour.

There is always a new facet of nature in Mohammad Hussain Baba's creative mind. The artist, from India, works with weeping willow wood to create this wondrous set of six coasters neatly stored in an elegant box. Resilient and sturdy, the pieces are accented with a papier mache finish that Mohammad paints by hand, portraying a glorious garden of colorful flowers on a bright green base hue.

Artisan Sarote Lochotinunt of Thailand crafts this pretty sterling silver necklace. The heart-shaped pendant features 21 faceted peridot stones that create a happy sparkle at the end of the bright Venetian-style box chain.

Guatemalan artist Hugo Pichiya portrays a beautiful landscape where sheep graze peacefully near the dwellings. In the background, the highlands reign supreme while nature and its bright colors surround three small and picturesque houses. Pichiya's artwork is inspired by the small places of his homeland, where he says “distinct colors and magic can be appreciated in every corner of this incomparable land.” This oil on canvas landscape painting showcases Pichiya's skillful use of color and composition to create a serene and idyllic scene that transports the viewer to a tranquil rural setting.
