Lacquer miniatures rank as one of the most original and diverse handicrafts that developed in keeping with century old traditions. It takes around 6 months for the artist to make this lacquer casket. This box is made of paper-mâché which could be shaped into widely diverse forms. It is painted with tempera (pigment) painting and golden powder. This box is lacquered about 8-10 times.
In the development of ornamental decoration, traditional forms still play the leading part, coming along with themes of modern everyday life. This flower composition is splendid. The artist’s fantasy is limitless and his unique compositions are full of life-asserting beauty. The refined patterns absorbed an ornamental magnificence of gold sewing, old-style Russian miniatures and iconography.
