A very rare and beautifully painted Jain Book Box. The paintwork is original.

Jainism is an ancient pacifist religion from India. Although it has a relatively small following, it has been influential in shaping both Hinduism and Buddhism. The Jains are also known for their elaborate and colourful artwork.
