This is a very pretty acorn shaped box made out of Cocobolo rosewood (Dalbergia retusa) with Black Palm (Borassus flabellifer) cap. Cocobolo is a true rosewood from Mexico with prominent darker streaking on the nice reddish tone. It is a very dense wood that polish up nicely. The figure can be extremely extravagant in Cocobolo, one of the most striking woods. This timer was recently placed on the protected list, so it will become harder to find in the near future. The black palm cap adds contrast and visual interest with it's unique pattern.

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 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.

Dimension (largest diameter x height): 1" x 1-5/8"
