A florid medallion adorns the lid of this lacquered wood decorative box from Thailand. By Nantana Sompamitre, the florid artistry on the box is etched by hand and painted blue over black, creating a marvelous effect.

Nantana Sompamitre orchestrates a floral revelry detailed in blue for the design of this decorative box. Hand-carved of mango wood, the etched images are underscored by glossy black lacquer in the tradition of Thai décor.

Handcrafted from weeping willow wood, this delightful decorative box is finished with layers of papier mache and detailed with hand-painted floral arch motifs that dance across its surface in rhythmic repetition. The lacquered exterior adds depth and durability, preserving every brushstroke and curve. Designed by India’s Mohammad Hussain Baba, it works beautifully as an eye-catching accent or a special spot to store small treasures you want close at hand.
