This is a nice mini acorn box made out of American Holly (Ilex opaca) with Buriti Palm Nut (Mauritia flexuosa) cap. Holly trees are widely used as ornamental plants in gardens and parks. The glossy leaves and bright red fruits are popular Christmas and holiday season decoration. Holly symbolized truth, and is the official State Tree of Delaware. The wood of Holly is one of the whitest, with very fine grain for a smooth finish. Buriti is a rare palm nut with subtle colors and a slight translucent look, like a piece of marble. I really like how this acorn turned out: a simple and elegant gem.
This small acorn box has a removable swivel lobster claw attachment for keychain, lanyard, zipper pull, rearview mirror. It is also small enough to be worn as a pill pendant or cremation jewelry. The screw-on cap ensures that your content is secured. Great for small daily pills or any small things you want to have access on the go...It is also a unique gift since acorn is a symbol of good luck and prosperity.
