LV-4266 Black Locust Burl with Mun Ebony cap Slim Box, Toothpick Holder, Needle Case-SCREW CAP

$ 85.00


This is a pretty slim threaded holder made out of

 Black Locust Burl (Robinia pseudoacacia) with Mun Ebony (Diopsyros mun) cap. 

Black locust is a beautiful tree with Wisteria-like chains of dangling flowers. There is a street near my place lined with purple Locust trees on both sides.  Needless to say, that street turns magically beautiful in the blooming season.  The wood is hard, heavy and very durable. One very interesting thing about Locust wood is that it fluoresce under black light, producing a strong greenish yellow glow.  I like the wild but subtle beauty of this one.


The Mun Ebony screw-on cap makes this holder extra special and ensures that your content is secured. The slim profile fits unobtrusively in a purse or pocket for the people on the go. This holder can be used to hold toothpicks, pill, snuff, sewing needles, cash stash and small valuables...Also serves as a nice gift for someone who seems to have everything.
