small decorative boxes

I have a collection of gorgeous, small boxes of many different kinds, materials and finishes. This beauty caught my eye immediately and is a wonderful addition to my collection. It is unique from any of the others and is so lovely on its own. I will put some of my newly acquired Novica pieces of jewelry in it as I have it in a location which is convenient for that use and perfect to keep it safe. This is my first piece from Ana Maria, but I am so pleased that I will be reviewing her collection for other lovely pieces for both myself and my lucky gift recipients! Thanks Ana Maria and Novica!! I highly recommend this and believe you will be as pleased as I am with Ana Maria's work!

'Javanese Memory' is decorated in a floral batik manner, and is predominately a subtle red with a simple design of rows of 4-petal "flowers" along each side. There are also special batik flowers on the lids of the four separate compartments of the box. I really love having the four compartments with the lovely lids. I love the way Gunadi shaped, designed, and used batik to decorate this beautiful box! P.S. I also have his 'Scarlet Scrolls' box - it is beautiful too! I thank him for his extra special work.

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 I'm very tempted to keep them for myself! Fida Hussain, you are very talented!
