This classic shaped box is turned from a piece of honey mesquite (Prosopis glandulosa) and features a delicate bead where the lid meets the base and a subtle ogee curve in the lid.Texturing has been applied to both the bottom of the box and in the inside of the lid to provide a little surprise when the box is handled or opened. A Tung oil finish enhances the natural depth and shimmer of the wood, and has been buffed to a pleasant sheen, but still give it a natural wood feeling. This box is the perfect place to keep your most precious earrings, cuff links or other keepsakes. Regrettably, this piece of wood appears to have several fine cracks that only appear as the box was being completed.
