An oval box carved from wood and set with green serpentine, using traditional carving techniques at DAR-Proyectos. Serpentine is a stone long associated with protection and with the shedding of what no longer serves — an apt lid for the things you take off at night.

Rings, earrings, a small pendant, airpods, whatever accumulates on a nightstand. It gives them somewhere to be.

At a glance

  • Hand-carved wood with green serpentine
  • Traditional carving techniques
  • Oval catchall for jewelry and small objects
  • Nightstand, vanity or desk
  • Stone pattern unique to each piece

How to use it

Keep it where you undress — a box only works if it is where the habit already happens. Beside the bed beats inside a drawer.

Dust with a dry cloth. Do not soak the wood or use cleaners on the stone.

✨ Temple Tip

Serpentine is traditionally kept near the body at night, which makes a jewelry box an unfussy way to have it in the room without turning it into a display.

In short

The Oval Jewel Box is a lidded catchall carved from wood and set with green serpentine, made with traditional carving techniques at DAR-Proyectos. It is sized for rings, earrings, small pendants and everyday items such as earbuds, and is used on a nightstand, vanity or desk. Serpentine is traditionally associated with protection; that association is offered as tradition, not as a claim about what the stone does. It costs $161.95. Stone pattern and wood grain are unique to each box, and it should be dusted with a dry cloth only, without water or cleaning products.
