Animals of the jungle are in unison in the design of this awesome soapstone jewelry box crafted by Gulam Rasool. The top of the box features elephants and roaring lions, while the lower panel of the box has marching elephants among the trees. The hexagonal box is designed with the artistic jali openwork portraying the beauty of ancient India. Two hinges facilitate the opening and closing of the box.

Precious piece and worried about arriving safe and sound. Relieved packaging was so secure took me removal of several layers of wrapping to get to box! Superb crafting of many elephants (my favorite creature) and love round design and substantial weight and size. Only disappointment is not off-white or ecru color as shown online, but a much darker brown or grayish shade. Nevertheless, love his work. Wish Gulam could bring back dyed/colored soapstone that he used to craft years ago. I have one of his pieces of a soapstone multi-colored elephant small box which I truly treasure.

Beautiful artwork and craftsmanship are words that do not adequately describe the amazing piece. I have more of these pieces, and this statement applies to them all. Just BEAUTIFUL!!!
