This is a very pretty acorn shaped box made out of Chittum (Cotinus coggygria) with Red Palm (Cocos nucifera) cap.  This is definitely the most colorful domestic timber.  The shimmering color mix is simple awesome! Also know as American Smoketrees, but they are certainly not a fire harzard.  The "smokes" are fluffy panicles of flowers that blooms over the plant.  The wood is very pretty with it's multi-color stripes, and also fluorescence under black light.  Capped with red palm for added visual effect.

A nice box for your valuables. The screw-on cap ensures that your content is secured, good for  small jewelry, keepsake... Thought the ages, people has given out acorns as a symbol of prosperity and luck. This one is a unique gift.
