The interior of this beautiful jewelry box has ample space for earrings, cuff links, necklaces, bracelets and watches.
This box is made from Black Limba, an exotic wood from tropical western Africa. The Black Limba in this box has a spectacular grain pattern and rich, varying colours. The scene in the centre of the top is framed by bands of Black Walnut, separated and defined by strips of Black Limba veneer.
No stains or dyes have been used. The rich colours that you see are the natural colours of the finished woods.
