Description: This box measuring: 5.5 x 5.5 x 4.5 cm. (2 1/4" x 2 1/4" x 1 7/8"), is made from a hand-finished tagua nut (vegetable ivory). I inlaid a 25 x 18 mm. onyx cabochon on top of the lid. The swivel lid closes tightly to keep your treasures safe. Its inner chamber’s dimensions are larger than that of the box's mouth which measures approximately: 2.5 x 3.8 x 3.5 cm. (1" x 1 1/2" x 1 3/8"). I filled all cracks inside, due to germination, with tagua dust and a non-toxic, acrylic furniture finish; that I then ground smooth. The 7th and 8th pictures show scale; while, the 9th picture shows more of my work and gives a better idea as to the different sizes. The last picture shows a raw tagua nut, so you have a better idea what I start with. Each nut has its own unique pattern, similar to a fingerprint. Tagua nuts are a renewable product of the rain forests of Central and South America. They are a viable alternative to animal ivory.
