This small box is suitable for Royalty. Can't think of a better pair of woods for a meaningful combination! Queenwood is a recently introduced timber from South America. It has an interesting gradation of color and a nice purple tint. I am not sure why it was crowned as Queenwood, but the fine grain timber is indeed worthy of this title. Brazilian Kingwood is a beautiful member of the rosewood family with a violet hue. It is a dense wood that polishes up to a lustrous finish. It was a popular wood for high-end furniture of the 18th Century, specially that of King Louis XV and XVI (hence, the name Kingwood). It is now becoming becoming very rare and expensive. I like this one!

The all-wood threaded box is a rare commodity. The screw-on cap is what make this box extra special. It can be used to hold pills and small valuables...The flat profile fits unobtrusively in a purse or pocket for people on the go, and the screw cap ensures that your content is secured. I don't make flat boxes very often. Since there is very little space to maneuver the threaded cap, flat boxes require very careful matching of the threads for a smooth, spin-on/spin-off operation.
