This is very nice eggplant shape trinket box made out of Camatillo (Dalbergia congestiflora) with Verawood (Bulnesia sarmientoi) cap. This wood combination was requested as a custom order. I really like the way it turned out; so much so that I made another one for you to feast your eyes. Camatillo is a true rosewood species with a beautiful deep purple color and darker streaks.  It is one of the rarer timber since the tree never grow very big. The wood is extremely fine, polishes up to a hard shine.  This particular eggplant was fashioned out of a highly figured piece of this rosewood for a striking effect. Verawood is a fine, hard and heavy wood (also known as Argentine Lignum Vitae) with a nice green patina after exposure. The cap of this box was turned and let to "aged" in my workshop for awhile to achieve the green tone, which will deepen with time. Delicious!

This threaded box can be used to hold small valuables...The screw-on cap ensured that your content is secured; also serves as a unique gift for nature lovers
