Description
The Siamese rosewood jewelry box is a handcrafted storage piece made from Dalbergia cochinchinensis, one of the most prized timbers in Southeast Asian decorative arts. Cut from dense, resinous heartwood and joined with brass hardware, this box is built to hold your most valued pieces while standing as a finished object in its own right.
Dalbergia cochinchinensis grows slowly across the river valleys of Thailand and Laos, producing a wood of exceptional density and a characteristic flame figuring in the grain. The box measures approximately 27 x 17 x 16.5 cm, with walls thick enough to add satisfying weight before the lid is opened. Brass hinges hold the lid at any angle without spring tension. The interior is lined with natural velvet that cushions rings, necklaces, and earrings. The exterior carries a low satin polish that draws the flame grain across the full face of each panel.
Use this box on a dressing table, nightstand, or wardrobe shelf. The single-compartment interior with padded lining works well for fine jewelry, watches, or keepsakes. The lid stays open at any angle, making access easy. The brass hardware is functional, not decorative: it will hold its integrity through daily use.
Siamese rosewood has been prized in Thai and Chinese decorative arts since the royal courts of the Ayutthaya period. Craftsmen in Chiang Mai and the northern highlands have shaped this material for centuries, exploiting the tight interlocking grain that resists warping even in high humidity. The slow growth rings that produce the flame figuring also make the wood structurally stable across generations, which is why pieces in this material are passed down rather than replaced.
Is Siamese rosewood a sustainable material? Dalbergia cochinchinensis is listed under CITES Appendix II, meaning international trade is regulated. Artisan d’Asie sources only from licensed suppliers. The wood used in this box comes from managed stock, not wild harvest, and is accompanied by documentation confirming legal origin.
