“Lotus” Lacquered Peacock Feather Box

About the Item

This Lacquered box is a wonder. There has never been anything created like this. Firstly, the box is shaped by hand. Then the interior is primed then sanded this process is done a total of 3 to 4 times. Next, the box is sprayed for a smooth clean slick black lacquer surface of black 1 to 2 times. At the end a top coat of varnish is sprayed for a protective finish. Lastly, Peacock eye feather trim is placed inside which is visually exciting. On the bottom of the box is 100 percent European black wool felt for protection and to prevent sliding. Now for the piece de resistance, the exterior. Well wow.... the Peacock bird is stunning. The feathers used for this box are from the male Peacock. The feathers are from China, Africa or China. They are harvested after mating or death. Each feather is prepped in the following manner, cleaning, steaming then hand placement with a secret sauce to attach. The feather coloration varies, some have a blue tint some have a more gold tint. This depends on the availability of the bird at the time of harvest. This is great gift for an Ornithologist, a Taxidermy enthusiast or a person who follows fashion and loves beautiful things.

  • Stunning Handcrafted Late 1800s Gothic Casket with Peacock & Gargoyle Sculptures
    Located in Lisse, NL
    Beautiful and rare Gothic Revival treasure box with bronze handle. If you are a collector of antique boxes and/or if you are looking for an extraordinary jewelry box to grace your credenza or side table then this unique and top quality made specimen in the Gothic style could be perfect. Gothic Revival boxes are very hard to find and we have never seen one with such prodigious carvings on all sides. The unique and cat-like dragon gargoyles (with fangs) that look like they are carrying this casket, are just some of the stunningly carved and detailed sculptures that make this antique rarity even more artistic and impressive. Another great feature are the peacock sculptures. In Christianity the peacock is the symbol of purity. Christians believe that once someone has passed their soul rises and goes to heaven. This is why in earlier times Christians would spread the feathers of a peacock over the deceased since it symbolized a pure soul that was immune to corruption. The peacock also represents immortality, resurrection, and the spiritual teachings of Jesus Christ and the Christian church. Have you also noticed the top quality details on both ends of the bronze handle on top? The quality of that ornamental work is of the absolute highest standard also. There are many more incredibly beautiful, hand carved details and together they show that no expense was spared to create one of the most amazing Gothic caskets...
