LV-1571 Redwood Burl & Black Palm Acorn Trinket Box, Keepsakes, Jewelry Box-SCREW CAP

$ 95.00


This is a very pretty acorn shaped box made out of Redwood Burl (Sequoia sempervivens) with Black Palm (Borassus flabellifer) cap. Redwood is the state tree of California and can grow to giant proportion.  A stroll in a Redwood forest is one of my favorite pass time. The towering trees are truly awe-inspiring...The species holds the world record for the tallest tree and can live for more than a thousand year, as its Latin name mean "Forever Living". The timber is widely used for constructions due to it's nice, warm tone and resistance to insect and decay, but the burly wood (which also holds the world record for the largest burl) is something truely special. I saw a redwood burl vessel for the first time in a State Park gift shop. I was dying to have and to hold it, but I was a poor student back then... Now I can make my own redwood burl items, and still fall in love with them, every time! This one was fashioned from a gallery grade burl with incredibly dense lace pattern, and capped with the handsome Black Palm for added visual effect.

A nice box for your valuables. The screw-on cap makes this nature inspired box extra special and ensures that your content is secured, good for jewelry, keepsake... Through the ages, people has given out acorns as symbol of prosperity and luck. This one is a unique gift.
