LV-3629  Lignum Vitae & Ebony Slim Box, Toothpick Holder, Needle Case-SCREW CAP

LV-3629 Lignum Vitae & Ebony Slim Box, Toothpick Holder, Needle Case-SCREW CAP

$ 78.00


This is a pretty slim threaded holder made out of Lignum Vitae (Guiacum officinale) with Mun Ebony (Diospyros mun) cap.  Genuine Lignum Vitae is quite famous for being "the densest wood in the world". The wood is also believed to have medicinal properties in its resins and chips; "Lignum Vitae" is Latin for "Wood of Life."  Official National Flower of Jamaica, the timber is now rare and expensive.  What's more, it can eventually develop a dark green patina, one of a very few woods that just gets greener as it aged!

The crew-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.

Dimension (largest diameter x height): 1" x 3-1/2"
