LV-2499 Mun Ebony & Tulipwood Flat Pill Box, Ring Holder, Jewelry Box-SCREW CAP

LV-2499 Mun Ebony & Tulipwood Flat Pill Box, Ring Holder, Jewelry Box-SCREW CAP

$ 95.00


This is a round box made out of Mun Ebony (Diospyros mun) with Tulipwood (Dalbergia decipularis). Mun Ebony is my favorite ebony species for several reasons: the wood is very fine and easy to work with, the patterns can be very striking and a hint of green tint make this ebony special, the wood is very stable, dimensionally. This dark wood is lustrous and goes well with any other colored wood, thus it is my favorite for box body. Tulipwood is a true rosewood species native to the tropical region of South America, mainly Brazil. It is a fine textured, hard and heavy wood that polishes up nicely. Tulipwood has irregular streaks of yellow, rose and red or violet on a cream to straw colored background.
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.
