Vase Lacquer Purple

Purple lacquer — an unusual and striking colour achieved through careful pigment mixing in natural lacquer. Purple is one of the rarest colours in traditional lacquerwork. Achieving a true, rich purple requires precise control of natural pigments within the lacquer medium. The result is deep and regal — a departure from the traditional red and black palette. Materials: Hevea wood, coloured natural lacquer Dimensions: 24 cm H Handcrafted in Siem Reap, Cambodia.
