This is a very pretty acorn shaped box made out of Camphor Burl (Cinnamomum camphora) with Black Walnut (Juglans negra) cap.  Camphor is the source of aromatic resin used in many tincture and oilments. It is also a very stately ornamental tree. It is one nicely scented timber from my aromatic wood collection.  Open the cap and take a sniff!  The inside pf this acorn was not sealed with a finish, so you can enjoy the aroma every time you open this acorn.  The dark cap adds contrast to this fun acorn.  Walnut is also a tree of many uses, beside providing one of the most popular dark wood from the temperate region. 

A nice box for your valuables. The screw-on cap ensures that your content is secured, good for  small jewelry, keepsake... Thought the ages, people has given out acorns as a symbol of prosperity and luck. This one is a unique gift.
