The artist had transformed an old old cigar box into a shabby work of art...
The box has a dimensional hand-painted rose on the lid...
...and through the painted strips, you can still see the original embossed writing on the sides of the box (Rothschild Baccarat)...
This beautiful gift sits in a vanity tray (that I painted pink), on top of the bookcase in my office....
... centered between a pair of white iron lamps with pink pleated fabric shades (a great vintage store find!!!)...
