Red Treasure Chest Jewelry Box

World Known Fact - Women love Jewels
Unknown Fact - Women love jewelry boxes more than Jewels. 


I am from a place which is famous for language and arts. I always loved traditional paintings which symbolizes love and marriage. When I saw this jewelry box It appeared to me as a allegorical view of nature that provided a means for conveying various messages to contemporary viewers.

Marriages in India are always famous for its grandeur and aesthetics. Both the bride and groom will be decorated for this occasion(Yes decoration !!! You read it right). One of them is Mehndi. Vedic customs are centered around the idea of "awakening the inner light". Traditional Indian designs are of representations of the sun on the palm, which, in this context, is intended to represent the hands and feet

So coming to this jewelry box I have tried palm Mehndi design  on this entire chest box. The borders here are BAMBOCCIANTI version of our South Indian temples.
The box has a lock with a black metal ornate (Keys not required). Inner surface is lined with the Red color Foam sheets which I feel a safest option to keep jewels.

Colors Used :Yellow and Red

There is a dignified significance with both these colors when it comes to our Culture. Yellow signifies something auspicious and Red is holy . Jewels and Jewelry boxes are understandibly auspicious and grand as we always think " MORE OF THIS SHOULD COME".

This can be customized upon request and designs can also be unique and thematic.
