Description: This box, 5.5 x 4.5 x 3.8 cm. (2 1/4" x 1 3/4" x 1 1/4"), is made from a hand-finished tagua nut (vegetable ivory). I inlaid a 16 x 12 mm. tiger eye cabochon on top of the lid. The swivel lid closes tightly to keep your treasures safe. Its inner chamber’s dimensions are approximately: 2.5 x 3 x 2.4 cm. (1" x 1 1/2" x 1"). I filled all cracks inside, due to germination, with tagua dust and a non-toxic, acrylic furniture finish; that I then ground smooth. The third and fourth to last pictures show scale; while, the second to last picture shows more of my work and gives a better idea as to 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.
