LV-4395 Holly & Live Oak Wooden Mushroom Trinket Box, Pill, Jewelry Box-SCREW CAP

$ 58.00


This is a petite mushroom box made out of American Holly (Ilex opaca) with Canyon Live Oak (Quercus chrysolepis) cap. As promised, a few mushrooms are ready for your enjoyment. They are made from American grown Holly and California grown oak. These are rare species of mushroom that only available once in a while, since live oak branches tend to crack badly when dried, not to mention the knots and twists that rendered them unsuitable for spinning mushrooms. Thanks to the green recycling program in San Jose, I occasionally find a pile of live oak trimming on the curbside, ready to be collected and ground up for compost, I would rescue a few branches and hope for the best. This one is from Canyon Live Oak, with whiter wood and a curly Holly body. Here it is: a classic white saprophyte, perfect gift for mushroom lovers, that is, if you can part with such thing.

This threaded box can be used to hold small valuables...The screw-on cap ensured that your content is secured; also serves as a unique gift for nature lovers
