Floral patterns and traditional parang dagger motifs are applied using the batik method, where a wax resist is painted by hand onto the exterior before colorful dyes are applied.

"The picture doesnt do it justice!"
Beautifully crafted and decorated this larger jewelry box is uniquely designed. The 3 smaller drawers are hidden behind the doors (indeed like an armoir), and the lower bottom drawer has a depth to it. It is special indeed!.

"Beautiful Jewelry Chest"
Thank you for the beautifully crafted and painted jewelry chest. I gave this chest to my sister as a gift for her birthday. She really loved the hand painting and style of the chest. She greatly treasures it and gives it a special place in her home.

"Parang Flowers jewelry chest"
Enchanting jewelry chest. Hand-painted motifs and such personal craftsmanship. Suitable for any age. Beautiful to have a useful, handmade object like this which is not easy to find these days in our mass-produced world.

"Unique Design"
I like the unique shape of these coasters and the exotic paint design. Only wish there was a lip on the edge so the glass will not feel like it is going to slip off.
