Description

Indian Lacquered Circular Box From Rajasthan - 19th Century
This wooden circular box with spot lacquer decoration I believe is from Rajasthan. Used for storing bindi (the red powder that Indian ladies apply to the forehead - signifying the third eye). Lacquering is done by skilled craftsman on a hand-powered lathe. The wooden pot is spun and a lac stick is pressed against the pot. As the pot spins friction softens the lac which coats the surface of the wood.
Quite intricate designs can be created by the craftsman using different techniques. Our lacquer boxes come from Rajasthan, Sind (Kutch) and Himachal Pradesh.
Good quality lacquer pots are becoming increasingly difficult to find.
From India
14.5 x 14.5 x x 5 (wxdxh cms)
