Item Description
Unique framed gemstone painting from Myanmar, 12.5 x 16.75 inches.
Gemstone paintings are created by selecting uncut precious stones usually ruby, sapphire, jade and peridot to match the colors of an original painting depicting a tradtional theme, including famous pagodas, landscapes, Buddhist images. The gems are crushed into bits or a powder, sieved and then sorted through. The appropriate piece is then glued on with great care, in the right color, tone and shade. Every stage is done without a machine, making a truly admirable handicraft. This painting comes direct from Yangon, Myanmar.
