The box is stained in a midnight blue tone then embellished with mixed-media elements, including distressed metal wings and hat and spring coil legs with bumper feet, the angels slim upper body is carved from wood and painted in natural tones. The face is represented by a plastic disc with facial features drawn on the surface and text running across the image in an abstract way. The body has ripped paper attached to the front with the words “I obeyed her. I was half happy.” The 3” x 3” box is lined with black felt on the interior. A perfect storage place for little treasures. Each box is individually created; no two are ever exactly alike.
