A teak box hand-painted with Bhaalchandra Ganesha in natural stone colours, holding the pen, a copper inkwell, a copper bookmark and a hibiscus pen stand.
The story
The lid of this teak box is carved and hand-painted with Bhaalchandra Ganesha in natural stone colours. It is a work of art before it is ever opened.
Inside lie the limited-edition Ganesha pen, Bhaalchandra; a hand-painted copper inkwell; a copper bookmark; and a pen stand shaped like a hibiscus flower, the blossom offered to Ganesha.
Every piece is painted and finished by hand, so no two sets are quite the same.
