This is a pretty acorn shaped box made out of gray tinted Buckeye (Aesculus californica) with a Black Palm (Borassus flabellifer) cap.  

The bluish stain Buckeye burl is something very special.  It is one of the few wood that exhibit this kind of color, add the wild pattern and it is truly unique.  The black palm cap adds another level of visual complexity to this striking acorn.  This wood combination is by far my favorite.  I have been making large and small acorns with them and every one is a real gem.

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 small daily pills, keepsake... Not recommended for long term storage of emergency pill, since I don't know how air/water tight the closure is. Through the ages, people has given out acorns as a symbol of prosperity and luck. This one is a unique gift.

Dimension (largest diameter x height): 1-1/8" x 1-1/2"
