Svasara Treasure Chests & Boxes

Created with the belief that everyone should have a beautiful, unique and special place to keep the things they treasure...something visible and alive, becoming part of your story. Each is always unique & handmade with an element reminding us that we are all connected and part of something bigger. For example, the treasure boxes are all the same on the inside - just as we are all very different on the outside but consist of the same elements within.

Castle Butterfly Prosperity Box

A wooden cigar box from Dominican Republic transformed into an abundance & prosperity treasure box...

...the outside box is covered partly covered in butterfly paper and copper; a gold plated bangle on the lid holds together a cluster of recycled rolled glass in shades of blue, amber and one reddish one; inside is painted in a metallic gold and the bottom is lined with hand embossed copper, recycled blue glass and petals from flowers much cherished. (note: Each one is different on the outside but all the insides are the same, like all of us)

depending on how you look inside and where the light comes & reflects from the bottom inside will glow more or less and change in color
