This is a natural, rustic, OOAK keepsake box handcrafted from driftwood reclaimed from the shores of the Potomac River in Quantico, Va. It’s a beautiful little piece of nature for your tiny hidden treasure!
The outside is 100% natural and untreated, just as the Potomac made it. The inner chamber and cut end were sanded silky smooth to the touch. A small finger notch was carved into the cut end to make opening the brass-hinged lid easier, while a small trough was carved into the bottom of the chamber to make removing your special item easier. Thin cyanoacrylate was added to stress points to stabilize the fragile driftwood. Finally, two magnets keep the lid closed in the down position.
This listing is for the unique jewelry box pictured. It measures about 5 1/2″ by 2 1/8″ at the base, and is about 1 3/4″ in height. The chamber length is about 3 7/8″, the width is about 1 1/8″ and the depth is about 5/8″. It will make the perfect keepsake box for your special item.
Please note, this keepsake box is made for small items only! Please measure your keepsake to ensure it will fit prior to ordering.
