This is a special slim threaded holder made out of African Padauk (Pterocarpus soyauxii) with Bocote (Cordia elaeagnoides) cap. Chances are that some of you are familiar with this timber. If you shopped for wood flooring, Padauk is one of the options. That speaks volume about the hardness and durability of this species. It is indeed a very nice timber to work with. The fresh cut wood has a vibrant red color, which will mellow down into a warm brown over time. That tiger striped Bocote cap goes particularly well with this red holder.
The crew-on cap makes this holder extra special and ensures that your content is secured. The slim profile fits unobtrusively in a purse or pocket for the people on the go. This holder can be used to hold toothpicks, pill, snuff, sewing needles, cash stash and small valuables...Also serves as a nice gift for someone who seems to have everything.
Dimension (largest diameter x height): 1" x 3-1/2"
