Twilight Mosaic Tissue Box
Made by hand in Damascus by the Al-Halabi family workshop.
Against the deep black finish of this rectangular tissue box, mother-of-pearl catches the light in fine strokes across a wood mosaic surface of walnut, beechwood, lemon wood, eucalyptus and rosewood. Each inlay is cut and set by hand in Damascus.
A wine-red velvet lining finishes the interior. It suits everyday use or display.
