LV-4548 Madrone Burl & Black Chacate Acorn Jewelry, Pill , Gift Box-SCREW CAP

$ 89.00


This is a very pretty acorn shaped box made out of Madrone Burl (Arbutus menziesii) withBlack Chacate (Guibourtia conjugata) cap.  This is another nice combination of beautiful timbers:  The burly madrone with its pretty orange color and the dark brown black walnut burl with dark swirly lines.   Madrone is known as Strawberry tree or Madrona.  This is a unique Pacific hardwood that has pink & tan colors with an occasional red streak. Its burls grow almost exclusively underground.  The burl wood has subtle pattern, eyes and swirls.  Madrone is one of the dense, hard local woods that I really enjoy.  

Black Chacate is also called Tsots, this species is from Mozambique and other E. African & S. African locales. It is dark brown with shimmering lighter streaks. Very fine grain and heavy. My first time working with this wood, and it is love at first sight.  Such handsome dark wood that turned like a dream and polished up like glass!  I like the weight of this acorn in my hand and the cool, super smooth feel.


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 a symbol of prosperity and luck. This one is a unique gift.
