Angelfish jewellery box

A jewellery box with a pietra dura panel lid. Central to the panel is a life-like Angelfish which has a lapis-lazuli head, alabaster body, fins of agate and lapis. It is swimming between the coral made of red jasper, all set within a black Belgium marble background. Using traditional techniques, the pieces are hand cut and precisely inlaid using bees wax and pine resin glue.
