Caja Axolotl

Regular price $185.00 USD
Description

Few creatures are as unmistakably Mexican as the axolotl, the smiling salamander of ancient lake Xochimilco and a symbol of renewal. Here a playful school of them swims across an ivory lacquered box in warm golden yellow, every curve painted and etched by hand in the centuries-old Olinalá tradition of Guerrero.

Its single compartment is just right for rings, earrings, keys or a few small treasures on a nightstand, desk or vanity. A cheerful gift for nature lovers, new homes, birthdays and anyone who loves Mexican design with a sense of wonder.

5.5 in long × 4.5 in wide × 2.8 in high · single compartment.

Care Guide

To keep your Olinalá lacquer piece looking its best, we recommend:
- Dust with a soft, dry cloth; wipe marks with a barely damp cloth and dry right away.
- Keep away from direct sun, heat and humidity, which can dull or crack the lacquer.
- Avoid water, alcohol, perfume and cleaning products.
- Use a liner under glasses or food; never place hot items on the surface.
- Store wrapped in soft fabric.
