This trinket box carries that lineage in every detail. The silver-toned metalwork is intricate in the way that only patient hands produce. The hand-painted lid is vibrant without being loud — color used with intention, in the tradition of an art form that has always understood decoration as a form of devotion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSmall enough to hold a ring or a secret. Beautiful enough to leave open on a shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e+ WHY WE CHOSE IT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause Meenakari at this level of detail is the product of a tradition that takes years to learn and a lifetime to master. Because the combination of silver metalwork and hand-painted enamel is one of the more striking things Indian craft produces. Because craft that comes with centuries of practice behind it deserves to be noticed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e+ ABOUT THIS PIECE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne available.
