Hand turned round lidded keepsake box made from camphor wood.
What a wonderful gift this could be for someone you care about. Use as a keepsake box for cherished items, jewelry, or even pills. I've known people to use something like this for moisturizing creams.
The bottom of the base is approximately 2 1/4" wide. It is 2 3/4" wide at the widest place on the base. The overall height is 3 3/8" including the knob on top.
The top has a tight fit. Wood moves in response to the humidity in the air. Inside my home in California in late February 2022, when you pick up the lid, the base stays attached. Depending on where you live, the fit may become slightly tighter or looser. If you want a guaranteed loose fit, please advise and I will make the appropriate adjustment before shipping.
This piece is made from camphor wood. I was stunned when I discovered the spectacular the colors and grain on this wood. This is unlike anything else I've ever seen. Camphor wood has a wonderful menthol aroma when freshly turned, After applying oil and wax the aroma has disappeared on the outside. In the inside, a very faint aroma remains.
It buying was sanded to a high grit, then oil and wax applied.
