This is a small acorn shaped box made out of Macadamia (Macadamia integrifolia) with Betelnut (Areca catechu) cap. Yes, this is the tree with yummy nuts from Australia and Hawaii. The wood has very decorative medullary rays and nice pinkish red color. The unusual pattern is similar to that of Leopardwood. Capped with another nut of equally interesting pattern, this is one fun holder!
A nice box for your valuables. The screw-on cap makes this nature inspired box extra special and ensures that your content is secured. It is ready to dangle off your keychain, bag zipper, belt with the removable lobster claw. Good for small daily pills, keepsake, or any thing you want to carry around while on the go...Not recommended for liquid or long term storage of emergency pill, since I don't know how air/water tight the closure is.
