"An honestly breathtaking decoupage box to treasure"
As amazing as you may visualize in the photo, this box is just stunning to see. The artists talent is to perfection. The unique style of the Huichol art is evocative and indescribably pleasing to the eyes. I love this piece! I gifted the box to a male artist friend that has a style reminiscent of this art. This gift was such a big hit, everyone lavished praise on the work and beauty. The gift wrapping was just wonderful, the shipping was very fast (I did expedite it), I am incredibly pleased with this choice of artist and art in every way.
