Description

The listing, Unique Robert M Weiss Reverse Painted Glass Box Exceptionally Beautiful Brand New Made in Peru has ended.

I've had this wrapped in paper for so many years, I forgot I had it. Being a Leo, I'm sure was the reason I bought it. Since I haven't used it, nor missed using it, it needs a new home.
It will make a great gift for any Leo that you know....actually any one that you need a gift for, I think, would find pleasure in receiving this. It was made with perfection. Look at the colors. Even the drawing is so exact in surrounding this gorgeous king of the jungle with just the right colors so he is still the prominent one in the picture. Check out the rose in his mouth!
Within my research of the maker, Robert M Weiss, I found he took his art to Peru and trained the younger artisans the art of reverse painting on glass. In one word it is called eglomise.
The process requires the design to meticulously be painted in the reverse, on the glass, then placed paint-side-down onto the frame.
Each is hand-painted. You'll never find two alike.
With the advent of the computer age, fewer and fewer artisans exist, as Old World techniques are slowly or no longer produced, resulting in these one of a kind reverse painting on glass, quickly becoming family heirlooms.

To call this just a box seems so simple. But, this box measures 9" side to side, 2-1/2" top to bottom and 4-1/4" front to back. The inside is covered in a black velveteen.
However, the top of the inside is just painted a matt black. The depth of the inside is just about 1-3/4".

The pictures show each panel. It is all glass except for the frame. It has no lock. Measurements were taken of the framework, not the inner glass panels.

This is truly something that will make a thoughtful and everlasting gift. Something to treasure. I pass this to you, my Listia family of friends. Enjoy!

This will be wrapped carefully, and mailed at no charge, to your Listia verified address with tracking. All Listia rules apply.

Questions are certainly welcome. Thank you, once again, for making this a fun and successful auction.

Thanks Pam for your kind words. Also for the advertising. You're very sweet to help spread the word. I was fanned by DebbiMay last week. I know that's your sister. I welcomed her to Listia!

Thanks so much! I hope you' all had a lovely. Much to my dismay, my Dad went back in hospital tonight. We just walked back in the house. I am exhausted. He just came out of rehab yesterday. I stayed at his house last night. He didn't sleep a wink. We both were up all night. Tonight he had trouble breathing. Congestive heart failure. Back to hospital. I am so tired. That is so weird about DebbyMay. I thought you told me you had a sister Debby and when I heard from a Debby May I auctmatically thought it was your sister. Do you have a sister Debby or do I have you totally confused with someone else.?I feel like I'm cracking up lately!!! Lack of sleep. I was amazed the fairy lamps took in 41,000 credits! But, I only have 1,900 now and the auctions I have been watching I can't bid on and so much cool stuff I missed!
Take good care. I must close my eyes!!
