This is a round box made out of Olive Burl (Olea europaea) cap with Brown Ebony (Caesalpina paraguariensis). Olive has many symbolic meanings in the Western cultures. The brown ebony cap echoes the brown stripes of the nut, capping it off perfectly. 

The all-wood threaded box is a rare commodity. The screw-on cap is what make this box extra special. It can be used to hold pills and small valuables...The flat profile fits unobtrusively in a purse or pocket for people on the go, and the screw cap ensures that your content is secured. I don't make flat boxes very often. Since there is very little space to maneuver the threaded cap, flat boxes require very careful matching of the threads for a smooth, spin-on/spin-off operation.

Dimension (largest diameter x height): 2" x 1-1/8"
