BEAUTIFUL CIGARET BOX FROM CAMBODIA WITH ANGKOR TEMPLE SCENE $300







Alright, I know many of us are trying to quit smoking! However, this cigarette box is simply STUNNING! Beautiful! It is carved on all sides, as you can see in the pictures, with such careful detail. The front has an Angkor Temple scene, while the other sides have a decorative motif which is from the temple itself.
This is another example of the Cambodian silversmith expert craftsmanship. As we know, silver objects from Cambodia are among the most beautiful and interesting art objects in Southeast Asia.

It's dimensions are 3.5" H x 2.5" W x 1 1/4" D.
