“This is a beautiful jewel box for single set.”

This item the wooden turtle hand painted box is absolutely beautiful. It was so beautifully wrapped I hated to open it. After opening. I was astonished at the detail given to the design. I will definitely use this company and artist as a favorite for future gifts. Thank you so much. This will be a true family heirloom for me to pass on. Birddoglady11@hotmail.com
