Intricate layers of recycled cotton paper unfold to reveal a three-dimensional pomegranate bauble honeycomb with a cotton hanging loop. Artisans in Jaipur screen print each one by hand, and a magnet secures the opened shape. Fresh from the box, the layers may need a little gentle encouragement to expand, and that gets easier as they loosen.
