The story behind
Tangram is a geometric design by Gianpaolo Pagni that decorates the new Theoreme boxes. Several colorways are available, all of them promising harmony: the framboise version with contrasting colors, the bleu Biarritz option combining blue with a hint of luminous citrine, and the acajou version which features bronze, greens and a hint of burgundy. The inside of the boxes is divided into compartments: two large spaces and small squares. The sponge technique is used to color these hand-lacquered boxes. This gives the color a textured effect and intense reflections. The lacquer needs to be left to dry for a long time between each color application stage. This means that it takes several weeks to complete one piece.
