This lidded vessel, pronounced (pike-sis), was from the 6th century BC. Typically used as a ladies jewelry box. Comprised of 1636 pieces of Purpleheart, Bubinga, Indian Rosewood, Figured Maple, Holly and Black Veneer wood. Comments are always welcomed.
Al, what a beautifully detailed box & lid, your result is flawless.
A genuine gallery piece indeed.
