Memento Mori Lacquer Box
$ 295.00
The popular Maisner Memento Mori 3-color engraved image is laminated onto heavy wood. Next it is richly covered in satiny lacquer. You can see the depth of the engraved surface, which captures the light in a very special way, under the heavy application of the luscious lacquer.
The dimensions of this box are 6 x 4.5" and 2 " in height, and has black sides and trim.
This entirely handcrafted all wood product is produced using the centuries old tradition and method of hand pouring multiple layers of lacquer. Each layer is individually hand polished, taking many days.This is the only way to achieve the deep resonating colors and the luxurious glowing finish for which lacquered items are treasured. The resulting patina is truly gorgeous, as well as being heat and alcohol resistant.
