Rare Handmade Carved Walnut Hardwood Velvet Jewelry Trinket Box jewellery



Jewellery Box

Deep in the ancient dense forest of Kashmir grows the strong rich dark wood of the walnut tree. The wood known as DUN in the local language and worked for the generation of family carvers.

I bring to you today a stunning example of the carvers skill. A hand carved walnut hardwood velvet jewellery trinket box perfect for the safe keeping of your precious items. The jewellery box took 15 to 20 full working days to carve with hand tools. The skill handed from generation to generation, to this one carvers who brings to you his time, energy and creativity to make this stunning box

Imagine sitting in the waning sunlight with a raw piece of walnut and visualizing this box, lovingly carving each flowers small and large, each swirl. Working the raw wood until what is born is the beautifully appointed box. Each detail thought out and exacting from the decorative lid, the touchable and pieces the expertly fitted compartments complete to the detachable feet for easy transport.

From our families to yours, list the old world workmanship delight you protect your valuables, jewellery or
