This is a very pretty acorn shaped box made out of Snakewood (Piratinera guianensis) Lignum Vitae (Guiacum officinale) cap. This two timbers compete for the title of the hardest and heaviest wood. Snakewood has the interesting pattern found nowhere else. Lignum has the green patina that is very distinctive. If you ask me to pick the winner, it will be a difficult task, so here they are, judge for yourself...
