This box is made entirely of canary wood. This hardwood grows in South American from Panama to Southern Brazil. It is a non-endangered species. Known for its intense yellow/red colors when freshly cut, the wood naturally desaturates as it ages to lighter browns while still maintaining its contrasts.
The box is about 16" x 7 3/4" x 6 1/4" in height. There are four removable lowden colored soft pigskin lined trays. The trays are accented with pau blue abalone. The ring tray can be removed for a larger tray capacity. The handle is a hand cut piece of Gary Green Jasper. The piece was originally from a hand sized boulder that was sliced to a slab, cut to a ruff shape and ground and polished like many of my lapidary pendants. The mine for this material , located at the northern Nevada border, has long been closed to the public for gathering.
