This reverse painted glass box is decorative enough to contain even the most precious of heirlooms. In reverse glass painting, the design is silk screened onto the reverse side of the glass. The painting is done "back to front": details painted first, then larger color areas, and finally a background color. This technique requires great care and skill, as the visual "surface" is painted first then layered over, so errors cannot be corrected. Inspired by a Mandala design.
