LV-2209 Desert Ironwood & Partridgewood Acorn Pendant Box, Charm, Pill Holder-SCREW CAP

LV-2209 Desert Ironwood & Partridgewood Acorn Pendant Box, Charm, Pill Holder-SCREW CAP

$ 58.00


This is a small acorn shaped box made out of Desert Ironwood (Olneya tesota) with Partridgewood (Andira inermis) cap. Desert Ironwood is considered one of just two precious timbers from North America (the other one is Texas Ebony), and for good reason. This wood is hard and heavy like a piece of iron, but with the shimmering of gold and the smoothness of glass when polished. Desert Ironwood is probably the nicest looking dark wood from North America. The American Indian believes that the wood will bring luck and good health to the people who carries it. Partridgewood got it's name from the grain patterns that resembles partridge feather. It is another pretty dark brown timber with very tight grain.

A nice box for your valuables. The screw-on cap makes this nature inspired box extra special and ensures that your content is secured. It is ready to dangle off your keychain, bag zipper, belt with the removable lobster claw. The nut is small enough to be worn as a pendant (without the claw). Good for small daily pills, keepsake...Not recommended for long term storage of emergency pill, since I don't know how air/water tight the closure is. Through the ages, people has given out acorns as a symbol of prosperity and luck. This one is a unique gift.
