Whenever we visit Hawaii, I bring back some wood. This box is made from Koa and features a carved Polynesian fishook on the lid. The box is 6×9 inches and the lid shows off the bookmatched koa grain and is attached with brass hinges. The bottom is lined with pigskin suede, and finish is satin poly.
