This is a very special mushroom shaped box made out of Indian Laurel (Terminalia tomentosa) with Valley Oak (Quercus lobata).  This is the first time I came across a pile of valley oak trimming.  So happy to have a few mushroom caps from this species.  The magnificent valley oak is one of my favorite with impressive umbrella canopy and gnarly branches.  There is a huge one down the street near my place.  We watched it nervously as a developer came and start building new homes.  My sister said she is not the tree hugging type but would prepare to get in the way if they cut this beauty down.  They didn't.  Instead, they named the new street "Valley Oak Loop".  Good judgement! 

This threaded box can be used to hold small valuables...The screw-on cap ensured that your content is secured; also serves as a unique gift for nature lovers
