Born in one of Rio's most dangerous slums, our Rio De Janiero artisan Nilson dropped out of school at age 15 to help support his family. Apprenticed to a brass artisan, he discovered his creative talents. Today, he and his artisans hand cut and sculpt brass, masterfully shaping the metal around the amethyst, citrine and quartz crystals that embellish this charming box. 3" x 5" x 1.75".
