This is a very pretty acorn shaped box made out of Black Chacate (Guibourtia conjugata) with Black Palm (Borassus flabellifer) cap.  Also called Tsots, this species is from Mozambique and other E. African & S. African locales. It is dark brown with shimmering lighter streaks. Very fine grain and heavy. Such handsome dark wood that turned like a dream and polished up like glass!  Capped with the uniquely pattern black palm for a handsome dark acorn!

Dimension (largest diameter x height): 1-5/8" x 3"
