Legacy Carved Box
Made by hand in Damascus by Mohammad Tarek Al-Dahh, one of the younger generation keeping this craft alive. Read his story →
This small hexagonal box is carved entirely by hand from dried beechwood, with oriental motifs, a warm walnut finish and mother-of-pearl inlay.
Inside, a wine-red velvet lining protects jewelry and keepsakes. It also works on its own as a decorative accent.
