A playful nymph smiles slyly from a gleaming bower of magnificent blossoms. Her brilliant auburn hair seems to melt into the delicately frilled petals, while the blossoms' green centers match the striking shade of her eyes. The figure is painted with a stunning realism, beautifully juxtaposed against the translucent sparkle of the flowers. The body of the box is painted palest blue green, adding to th contrast and depth of the piece. This box is made of high quality papier mache, and is signed on its flush base with the title, artist's name, and village. There is a hinge at the top, and the interior is red lacquer.
