Story Behind the Art:
This item was made in Pananque, Philippines under the guidance of Mr. Chito Navoa and his family. Single Capiz shells are extracted by hand and individually placed in the handcrafted metal frame of the Lotus Flower by craftsmen who then polish, paint and lacquer each individual piece until it glows with color and vibrancy. The Navoa family business supports many talented artists and craftsmen, giving them an opportunity to make a living.

Ships in clear plastic box, with insert describing capiz shells.
