Absolutely Beautiful!!!
The details are what makes this so special. I love knowing that it is a hand painted, unique item. I looked for a long time for the right jewelry box and when I "met" the artist and put a little history behind the purchase, it made it that much more special. I will be buying more items as gifts, because I know that anyone would LOVE getting something so pretty and special. Loved the little Thank you card enclosed, signed by Apolonio as well! He is a true artist and God has blessed him with such talent and gratitude!!
Stunning, though pinker than picture
The pictures of this item make it look like a color intermediate between purple and pink, however in person, under natural light, I would describe it as being redder/pinker and I would probably describe the color scheme as just pink, maybe with hints of purple. The top panel also looks white in natural light. As purple is my favorite color I'm a little bit disappointed in that, and yet despite that, it is really amazing work. Had I known what it would look like in natural light, it's possible that I'd have gone for "Cajamarca Splendor" by the same artists, which is a bold combination of secondary colors including purple. However, regardless, I am very happy that I have one of these cabinets, and this color scheme would have been one of my top two finalists for which one I wanted, regardless. I am very happy to have it; it is such a neat piece, and I am amazed that when you consider how much it would cost to ship this much glass from the Andes, they can offer it at this price.
