This is a small acorn shaped box made out of Chinese Pistaschio (Pistacia chinensis) with Burmese Blackwood (Dalbergia cultrata) cap. Related to the edible pistachio,this Chinese version is popular here as street tree and landscaping tree. This species has insignificant flower but offers an incredible fall color display, followed by multicolor clusters of tiny fruits when all the leaves have fallen. I used to live in a house with a tree in the front yard and loved it! Chinese Pistachio is another interesting wood with a greenish tint and beautiful figure. just look at the pictures and see for yourself how gorgeous this timber is! I like to pair green with black. Burmese Blackwood is actually a true rosewood species with interesting shimmering grain.
A nice box for your valuables. The screw-on cap makes this nature inspired box extra special and ensures that your content is secured. It is ready to dangle off your keychain, bag zipper, belt with the removable lobster claw. The nut is small enough to be worn as a pendant (without the claw). 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. For a permanent seal, apply a small amount of wood glue to the threads before closing. Through the ages, people has given out acorns as a symbol of prosperity and luck. This one is a unique gift.
