Jewelry Coin Box - Closed

Bristlecone Pine jewelry boxes

 

These rustic-appearing beautiful jewelry boxes (or desk organizers!) are made from Bristle Cone Pine that was burned over by a forest fire in the 1880's. Bristle Cone Pine grows high in the Rocky Mountains at 8000 feet and over, and is the oldest living thing in the world. These boxes are made from trees that are 200 to 1000 years old.

 

The boxes are hand made in the San Luis Valley of Southern Colorado, US, and finished with a fine Danish oil.
