Cajamarca box

Precise detail and a beautiful contrast of colors define this hand-crafted art. The process of reverse painting is a unique method of the Cajamarca Artisans. First, they start by hand cutting the frame from fine wood. The designs are then delicately hand painted onto the glass with vivid and colorful acrylics and then the piece of glass is carefully inlaid. Finally, they add a gold or bronze finish to the borders for the finishing touch.
