This is very nice eggplant shape trinket box made out of Camatillo (Dalbergia congestiflora) with Lignum Vitae (Guiacum officinale) stem. This wood combination was requested as a custom order. I really like the way it turned out; so much so that I made another one for you to feast your eyes. Camatillo is a true rosewood species with a beautiful deep purple color and darker streaks.  It is one of the rarer timber since the tree never grow very big. The wood is extremely fine, polishes up to a hard shine.  Genuine Lignum Vitae is quite famous for being "the densest wood in the world"."Lignum Vitae" is Latin for "Wood of Life." Official National Flower of Jamaica, the timber is now rare and expensive. Delicious!

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
