    martika
    (149 items)

    Today I again went browsing into charity shop and I found this pretty trinket box for £3.99. It is handmade, the core is alabaster, which is covered with carved lapis pieces. The diameter is nearly 4 inches. I looked it up on the net and found a very similar one. Learned these are made in Afghanistan.
    I don't know which category to put it, so I will post it under General ( multi-category).
