This decorative box features beautiful reverse-painted glass with a map of the world on its lid in a golden brown palette to give it an antiqued look. Peruvian artisan Asunta Pelaez handcrafts the box from wood and paints by hand the world map scene on the reverse side of a pane of glass that is then secured to the box surface. The four sides of the box also have reverse-painted glass in blocks of color in the same brown, orange, and gold tones as the map. The lid can be removed to reveal a single compartment, painted black.

"A cherished heirloom!"
Special thanks to Asunta Pelaez for creating this masterpiece! It arrived today and it is so much more beautiful than I anticipated. Wow. It took my breath away. I was so excited that I gave it to my mom right away! It was supposed to be a birthday present for March. No way I could keep it hidden for so long! This is a truly beautiful piece of art work. I love it! Thank you, thank you, thank you.
