Mango Wood Box — White Scrubbed, Aztec Design, Small Size
The smallest member of the series: a palm-sized mango wood box with hand-carved Aztec geometric motifs and a white scrubbed patina finish. The small size gives it its own character — an intimate, personal piece that holds a single precious jewel, a pair of rings or a few prized incense cones. The sharp, symmetrical Aztec geometry contrasts with the organic grain of the wood: triangles, concentric circles and stepped motifs form a coherent, powerful visual unit. The white scrubbed surface is hand-sanded and rubbed back, so the natural tone of the wood shows softly through — giving it an antiqued, almost archaeological appearance. Handmade in India using traditional joinery and carving techniques.
