Custom Keepsake Box

 SOLD! 

Custom keepsake box with  sculpted design from walnut.  The lid and base are enhanced with inlay trim of maple and mahogany.  The lid also has a jet inlay shadow around the trim. The bottom of the inside is covered with wine suede.  Jet is an organic fossil - a solid, durable type of lignite coal that originated from wood. The term coal means the fossilized remains of ancient organic matter that ranges from bog materials to peat to wood. Jet, however, is the fossilized remains of araucaria (coniferous evergreen) wood specifically. Therefore, jet is not a stone or a mineral.
