This bundle includes instruction packet, traditional chest/box and FREE US shipping. This unique chest is made from baltic birch ply and measures 12" long x 8" wide x 12" high. The "topper" of the box comes unattached to facilitate easier painting. You will want to glue it on after you've completed the design. We recommend you do not paint any surface that will have glue on it
This highly decorated piece is in the shape of a reliquary topped with dragons. From the young Arthur and the sword in the stone to the knights of the round table enjoy decorating this piece with techniques and ideas from illuminated manuscript painting. The box was originally from Butter Ranch and has been beautifully reproduced by Paul and Susan Lockwood.
