A gorgeous design of blooming purple flowers and green foliage with gold and white accents has been intricately hand-etched by the artisan using natural pigments, creating an elegant floral design of natural simplicity and a singular work of beauty. The black finish, smooth and lustrous, is produced through the application of seven layers of lacquer followed by a two-month drying process, resulting in a rich, shiny base for the stunning design.
