Set/6 Coasters - Queen of Sheba Orchid

These set of six lacquerware coasters are handmade in Kashmir using paper maché and lacquerware techniques. There are many steps to the process including creating pulp from recycled paper, moulding and finishing the shapes, hand painting, and varnishing. Individual coasters feature a felt base to prevent scratching any surfaces, and the full set of six fit neatly inside the matching box. 

Thelymitra variegata Southern Queen of Sheba is native to Western Australia. This spectacular orchid is found along the southern coast from Bunbury to Albany and shows great colour variation with spots of yellow, blue, pink and red.

Individual coasters measure approx. 8.5cm x 8.5cm.
