This premium handmade heirloom chest is constructed from striking, solid Gonçalo Alves exotic hardwood. The interior and bottom of the chest reveal rich, warm mahogany tones, while the exterior lid features an eye-catching, beautifully figured Cocobolo veneer. A polished brass knob anchors the front design. Perfect for securing jewelry, documents, and fine collectibles, it adds a touch of organic luxury to any desk or dresser.  The solid brass hinge features an integrated positive stop set at approximately 95 degrees. This deliberate mechanism holds the lid far enough back to prevent it from slamming accidentally on your fingers, without letting it bang into the walls or furniture behind it.
