Description: Cathedrals and Churches Classic Lacquer Box Hand Painted Palekh Style The box is made from papier-mâché, which is layered and pressed to create a sturdy yet lightweight base. The surface is meticulously prepared, often covered with several layers of black lacquer, providing a smooth, glossy background that enhances the colors applied later. Artists use vibrant colors to create intricate scenes. The painting is done by hand, requiring great skill and precision. Fine brushes are used to achieve detailed designs and elaborate patterns. This box features gold leaf or gold paint, adding a luxurious element to the artwork. The gilding enhances the vibrancy of the colors and brings a sense of depth to the designs. After painting, the box is coated with multiple layers of lacquer to create a durable, glossy finish. This not only protects the artwork but also gives it a distinctive shine. Dimensions: 4.25" x 3.5" x 1.75" Original box included. Pease note all images, these are part of the item description. Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
