LV-4700 Ziricote cap with Black Chacate Flat Box for Ring, Jewelry, Pills-SCREW CAP

LV-4700 Ziricote cap with Black Chacate Flat Box for Ring, Jewelry, Pills-SCREW CAP

$ 75.00


This is a round box made out of Ziricote (Cordia dodecandra) cap with Black Chacate (Guibourtia conjugata). Also called Tsots, this species is from Mozambique and other E. African & S. African locales. It is dark brown with shimmering lighter streaks. Very fine grain and heavy. Such handsome dark wood that turned like a dream and polished up like glass!  Ziricote has a wild pattern that matches it well. 

The all-wood threaded box is a rare commodity. The screw-on cap is what make this box extra special. It can be used to hold pills and small valuables...The flat profile fits unobtrusively in a purse or pocket for people on the go, and the screw cap ensures that your content is secured. I don't make flat boxes very often. Since there is very little space to maneuver the threaded cap, flat boxes require very careful matching of the threads for a smooth, spin-on/spin-off operation.

Dimension (largest diameter x height): 2" x 1-1/8"
