Featuring a vermilion red banquet scene alongside a black-lacquered court audience box, this set adds historic storytelling, rich color, and artisanal character to credenzas, coffee tables, or desk landscapes within Global Eclectic, Boho, and Traditional interiors.\u003cbr\u003eCultural \u0026amp; Artistic Background\u003cbr\u003eRooted in traditional miniature painting and lacquer traditions, each container portrays classical royal Darbar (court assembly) scenes. The red rectangular box depicts a seated sovereign hosting a banquet across an ornate patterned carpet adorned with golden vessels, framed by standing guards along the side panels. The black box with rounded corners portrays a formal royal audience, featuring a ruler on a gilded throne receiving advisors and a supplicant, bordered by cypress trees along the lower rim. The base of the black container retains its original vintage paper export label.\u003cbr\u003eCondition \u0026amp; Surface Character\u003cbr\u003eBoth boxes exhibit strong structural stability with cleanly fitted lift-off lids.

Interior cavities remain clean and finished in protective black paint.\u003cbr\u003eDimensions \u0026amp; Weight\u003cbr\u003eBlack Rounded Box: Height: 2.8 inches | Width: 7.2 inches | Depth: 4.2 inches\u003cbr\u003eRed Rectangular Box: Height: 2.2 inches | Width: 6.2 inches | Depth: 5.0 inches\u003cbr\u003eWeight Profile: Moderate (Solid Carved Wood Base)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Belle Afrik Arts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":60049593762078,"sku":"BA-0475","price":58.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1081\/5176\/7326\/files\/il_fullxfull.8489735151_tgjy.jpg?v=1790371601","url":"https:\/\/belleafrikarts.com\/products\/vintage-hand-painted-lacquer-wood-box-set-indian-royal-darbar-folk-art","provider":"Belle Afrik Arts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
