Indian Lacquer boxes are used for storing jewellery or bindi (the red powder that Indian ladies apply to the forehead). Quite intricate designs can be created by the craftsman using different techniques. Good quality lacquer pots originally came from Rajasthan, Kutch and Gujarat and are becoming increasingly difficult to find.
This old Indian lacquer pot was made in the regency style and is from Rajasthan. Multiple layers of lacquer are applied by hand by craftsmen using a lathe. As the wooden pot spins, a lac stick is pressed against the pot. The friction softens the lac which coats the wood. This is complemented by the intricate hand made brass fittings. This particular pot is 19thC.
