Take your decoration game to the next level with this highly-collectible Solid Brass Elephant Betel Storage Box. Nielloware has been a status symbol of royalty in many countries in Southeast Asia including Thailand, Myanmar, and Cambodia. The process of creating niello objects is a very labor-intensive and elaborate one.

Typically, precious metals such as gold, silver, or brass are incised to create meaning, often culturally, depictions or patterns on an object. Cambodian silversmiths are considered among the most skilled experts at chasing, repoussé, niello, enameling, and gilding such objects.

This intricately-engraved brass betel box is a perfect hidden treasure storage niello box. It features an engraved Hanuman Monkey on each side adorned with foliate decoration. Each piece requires complicated engraving by hand for months before birthing a highly detailed nielloware. It is such an exceptional example of Southeast Asian niello works, making it a perfect heirloom for your beloved family.
