Enameled Square Box Medium Hop Hare

• The lid is the focal point: a smooth enamel panel with a painted design that rewards a closer look, its colours sitting flat and vivid against the wood beneath.
• The box body is mango wood, with a natural warmth to the grain visible at the sides and base.
• The square format gives it a neat, considered footprint, it doesn't sprawl across a surface.
• The finish feels deliberate: the contrast between the painted lid and the plain wood sides gives it a handcrafted, unhurried quality.

Mango wood is widely used in Indian craft for its close grain and warm honey tones. It takes paint and lacquer well, which makes it a natural partner for enamel decoration. The Hop Hare range pairs this material with illustrated enamel lids, a technique that keeps the surface durable and the colours lasting.

Keep it away from prolonged damp and direct heat, which can cause the wood to warp or the enamel to lift at the edges. Wipe the exterior with a dry or barely damp cloth. The lid is best handled by its edges rather than the painted surface to preserve the enamel over time.

Weighs approximately 350 g. Part of the Hop Hare Enamelled Wooden Boxes and Trays range, which includes matching pieces in different sizes and designs.

A good choice for someone who likes objects that are both useful and pleasing to look at, suitable for a birthday, a housewarming, or as a small treat for a collector of illustrated or nature-themed pieces.
