This pill box fits in every handbag and makes an ideal small gift! Handcrafted lacquerware created by a group of Kashmiri artisans from India with Mitjili Napurrula's Watiya Tjuta painting.
The Watiya Tjuta in Mitjili's paintings is her father's Tjukurrpa (dreaming) in Ilyingaungau country (Gibson Desert). This was passed down to her by her mother, Tjunkayi Napaltjareri when story telling, using the sand to draw the story as it is told in the traditional way. She remembers "After I got married, my mother taught me my father's Tjukurrpa in the sand, that's what I'm painting on the canvas, a women's interpretation".
The fair trade arts project Better World Arts collaborates with Ikuntji Artists to produce these unique gifts.
Size: 5 x 6 x 2.9 cm
