Details
Made of pine, this small box is for keeping valuables. Its back board is decorated with painted ox-horn sheets. Despite some cracking, the ox-horn sheets are thinly sliced and polished to be translucent without any stains. The bright colors and bold yet exquisite patterns evoke the image of a folk painting.
