Apricot sweetness and warm days were artist's inspirations in creation of this box. The box is made of paper-mache, which is durable and it is processed to have a smooth surface (versus "wrinkly" surface).
The flower stems of the decoration and borders are painted in genuine liquid bronze, which makes the colors more vivid. This is the last touch that's added to the box before covering it with several layers of lacquer for protection.
