This is a beautiful flat threaded holder made out of Mun Ebony (Diospyros mun) with Curly English Walnut (Juglans regia) cap. This box combines two important darkwoods from the tropics and the temperate zone. The nice curly Walnut goes on the top and the more suble but equally figured ebony the main body. It is a true beauty!
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 for the hands to open or close the cap, flat boxes require very careful matching of the threads for a smooth, spin-on/spin-off operation.
