Flower & Bird Blue Mother of Pearl Double Lidded Jewelry Box - by Park In-ho

Overview

A double-lidded jewelry box by Park In-ho pairing flowers and birds in blue-toned mother-of-pearl — a cooler, painterly take on a classic Korean motif.

Heritage & Craft

Flower-and-bird painting (hwajodo) is one of Korea's best-loved decorative genres, a scene of harmony and happiness in nature. Here the blue-cast nacre gives the garden a sea-glass palette, every petal and wing an individually cut piece of shell.

Artist

The work of Park In-ho. Hand-finished, each box subtly individual — effectively one of a kind.
