This is a very pretty acorn shaped box made out of Verawood (Bulnesia sarmientoi) with Suriname Ironwood (Bocoa prouacensis) cap. Verawood, also know as Argentine Lignum Vitae, is another interesting wood that will eventually turns green. It is a fine, hard and heavy wood that resembles Lignum Vitae. The green color will deepen with light exposure. Capped with Suriname ironwood, one of the hardest wood that I have ever came across, this looks like a still green acorn, hanging on the tree around here.

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.
