These brilliantly colored, sparkling glass bangle-covered boxes and frames are inspired by the work of celebrated Indian folk-sculptor, Nek Chand. The raw material for these pieces are the colored glass bangle bracelets worn by millions of Indian women. As Nek Chand did in his famous Rock Garden in Chandigarh, India, these artisans covered boxes and frames with a mosaic of broken glass bangles - a recycling project with stunning results!
Note:
With the high cost of shipping many of our customers choose to ship by USPS. For small and light shipments this is usually less expensive, but please be aware that their estimates are often wrong and their service can be very slow (sixteen days for Priority Mail from Philadelphia to New York City recently). The service is not always as economical as it may appear, particularly on larger or more valuable shipments. USPS estimates only include insurance up to $100 for its domestic shipments. If you ask for full insurance we will recalculate the shipping cost and send you an invoice for any difference in cost. For overseas shipments USPS will not insure for over $650. On request we can get estimates for overseas shipping from DHL.
