Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera's on/off love affair is legendary. They filled their life with a dramatic love and exotic colours, painting self portraits and murals that told the story of Mexico. Diego - like any good Mexican - loved his food, so Frida would take him his lunch, beautifully prepared, everyday in a basket. Last of all she covered the basket with a napkin embroidered with 'Mi amor'. Cassandra wanted to capture their love story in a jewel, so she created a golden basket with a handle across the top and placed carefully set jewels inside.
