Description

Orchids grow wild in the hills of Madagascar, and Professor Delacroix spent four rainy seasons trying to find the one he had read about as a student. When he finally found it, clinging to a mossy branch above a waterfall, he sat down in the mud, forgot entirely about his notebook and simply looked at it for an hour.

This box invites that kind of looking. A vibrant orchid is painted against a dark blue background, the contrast making the flower seem to glow, and the smooth, polished finish adds to its quiet sophistication. The shaped form gives it a little more personality than a simple round or square. It makes an elegant gift for an orchid grower, a botanist, a lover of fine art or anyone celebrating a special anniversary. Set it on a vanity near a mirror, on a coffee table among art books or in a display cabinet beside other floral pieces. Inside, it keeps an heirloom ring or a pressed petal safe. Orchid societies and greenhouse hobbyists will appreciate the care in the painted petals. It pairs beautifully with a living orchid on the same table.
