Vintage Trinket Box Hand Painted Kashmiri Paper Mache Lacquer Floral Collectible Box | Indian Jewelry Case | Boho Decorative Keepsake Unique

$53.32

🌺 Step into the vibrant world of Kashmiri artistry with this stunning mid-20th-century lacquered box.

Draped in jewel-tone reds, greens and blues, each petal and vine is painstakingly painted atop multiple papier-mâché layers, then sealed under glossy lacquer for lasting protection. Lift the lid—crafted to slip on and off—and discover a jet-black interior perfect for stashing rings, coins or cherished mementos.

📜 A Touch of Himalayan Heritage
These boxes hail from Kashmir’s centuries-old papier-mâché tradition, where artisans mix recycled paper pulp with natural binders, mould it over wooden forms, then hand-paint intricate floral motifs in gold, red, green and blue. Originating under Mughal patronage and revived in the 1920s, this craft remains a living link to India’s decorative-arts legacy.
