Thuya is an aromatic, exotic wood indigenous to Morocco.
Indigenous to the hot, dry region of southwest Morocco, Thuya
burls grow underground on the roots of trees, sprouting new
shoots of the main root structures. Thuya wood production is a
long-held tradition in Essaouira, Morocco. Local artisans who
take extreme pride in their work do the entire process by hand.
All boxes are handmade so each varies slightly from the next and
will have unique characteristics inherent to natural wood.
Though the external surfaces are buffed to an impressive smooth
high gloss sheen, there may be naturally occurring knotholes,
nicks, and other small imperfections in the wood which become a
part of each piece character.
Thuya jewelry box is ideal
for storing rings, necklaces and valuable items. This rare box
will make unique gift for special one
