Designer Madam Adwoa and artisans from her Onyame Akwan Dooso workshop skillfully craft this beautiful wooden box with brass hinges. Traditionally used by African women to keep their personal accessories, it brings an authentic and useful touch of West Africa to any environment. Hand-carved from sese wood, the box is finished with dark tan mansion wax. Diamond motifs circle the lid, arches are carved on the sides, and the legendary Adinkra gye nyame emblem on the lid signifies "I fear none except God." With its rugged beauty, this box makes a distinguished desk accessory for the professional person or a cherished jewelry box in the home.
