Hand painted box from Nepal. The lotus flower is widely seen and used in Hinduism and Buddhism, in these cultures it is a sacred flower that symbolizes purity, purity, your beauty, inner growth and the connection with the universe. The lotus flower has a symbolic meaning for the ‘growth towards enlightenment’ and is mainly the result of the flower’s growth process. The lotus flower nestles in the mud under water and then grows very vigorously towards the light, after which we can observe a beautiful flower on the water. We can also experience this process as a human being, then see the mud as ignorance and suffering and as you grow your hand becomes wiser and as the lighting is achieved, you beam like that beautiful lotus flower. The decorations are antique looking handiwork and may have here and there damage that has been deliberately left as it is. Disclaimer: Manual painting is never exactly the same as in the photo.
