One-Off Micro Mini Tea Set - Rare Handmade Betelnut Sculpture

Craftsmenship at its best, scaling up to outstanding heights. It’s a beau ideal perfection & imagination and ultimate levels of execution. These tiny (less than 1 inch) cups and saucers along with Snax tray and Kettles & pitchers are made of betelnuts.  Hard to believe but yes, its made up of betel nut. An artisan on average takes almost two days to prepare on such set of artwork which includes (miniature depiction of)

-          6 pairs of cups and saucers,

-          1 snax tray,

-          1 large kettle

-          and 2 pots.

Amazingly making these sizes of object at this level of perfection is difficult to make with regular mediums like clay, bone china or metal but the artisan have shown his outstanding skill set to make it with betelnuts. More than the skill set this needs a lot of patience, so that you endlessly and passionately keep on doing something which would take some time to provide you the results. And on top, many a time failures would come across to test you as many a pieces would crack and break during the process. For sure you need to have an eye for admiring this finest work. Its indeed a rare collectible item.
