Our 'Earth' is a box made of Huanghuali from Hainan, China.

The size is 5.8cm x 5.2 cm x3.4cm.

It is simple but sophisticated, with impressively beautiful natural patterns on the wood.

We consider this as an alternative interpretation of minimalism.

The wavelike patterns in the wood change with lights.

It has astonishing visual effect when you see it in reality, much better than in our photos.

Precisely done with superb craftsmanship.

Made of rare and precious material: Hainan Huanghuali.

The Chinese term Huanghuali literally means "yellow flowering pear" wood. 

It is a member of the rosewood family and is botanically classified as Dalbergia odorifera. 

In premodern times the wood was know as huali or hualu. The modifier huang (yellowish-brown) was added in the early twentieth century to describe old huali wood whose surfaces had mellowed to a yellowish tone due to long exposure to light. 

The sweet fragrance of huali is very distinguished, making it different from other kinds of hardwood.

The finest huanghuali has a translucent shimmering surface with abstractly figured patterns that delight the eye.

The color can range from reddish-brown to golden-yellow. 

Historical references point to Hainan Island as the main source of huali. Huanghuali from Hainan Island is considered as most precious and valuable. Due to long time of using in history and extremely slow growing of Huali tress , the authentic Hainan Huanghuali is very rare and precious nowadays. Our small art crafts are made of old Huanghuali furniture components.

The wooden patterns of the lid and the body fit in each other flawlessly. The craftsmanship is unbeatable. All details are carefully treated. You can hardly believe this is handmade. 

The box is made of the whole piece of wood. No gluing. No piecing together. 

There is no lacquer painted on this box. The shimmer of the box is purely from the finest polishing. 

The touch feeling of the box is silk-smooth.

Perfect to put in a ring or other precious things to your.

We only make special things that can last!
