Product Description

    The wild boar, as depicted here, is a traditional game animal of many of Taiwan’s indigenous tribes. This animal is still hunted, but in smaller numbers. Domesticated pigs are now commonly raised in indigenous villages and have mostly replaced wild boar as a meat source.

    This attractive and durable leather case can hold approximately 20 business cards, following on the artist’s interest in making art that reflects tradition but that has modern uses.
