The design is taken from an 800-page tome titled Traité des couleurs servant à la peinture à l’eau, created in 1692 to explore the art of mixing watercolors. The delicate swatches have been carefully lifted from the original hand-painted pages, offering a glimpse into the palettes and practices of 17th-century artists. Designed to hold stationery, jewelry, and other trinkets. Measures 6.7" X 4.5"
