Black Lacquer and Eggshell Vase (Thailand)

Brighten any home decor with the luscious color and texture of this handcrafted Black Lacquer and Eggshell Vase.

Handcrafted of the highest quality by Worldstock artisans in the village of Ban Twai in the Golden Triangle region of northern Thailand

Northern Thai lacquerware is well known to art collectors worldwide, and is acclaimed for some of the finest craftsmanship techniques in the world

Created by carving mango wood with expertise and applying the black resin of the Lak tree as a coating material to give it a fine finish and luster. Each piece receives a seven-layer coat of lacquer to ensure its high quality, and takes 2 months to complete

Following the initial lacquer process, eggshells are thoroughly cleaned and spread out on paper to dry. Once dry, the shells are cracked into thousands of small pieces and applied throughout the bowl. A few more coats of clear lacquer are then applied on top of the eggshell

Vase measures 8 inches high x 3 inches in diameter
