"Green treasure box" jewelry box

Very unique box in its octagon shape and in its exquisite details of painting. The box is made of durable papier-mache which was processed to have a smooth surface (versus “wrinkly” surface). The flower stems of the decoration and the border were painted in 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. The box is signed and dated by the artist Koshib Omonov.
