This is one of the most Unique jewelry Boxes made by artisans of Rajasthan. In recent times they are mostly receptacles for trinkets and jewels, but in earlier periods, when other types of container were rarer, and the amount of documents held by the typical person far fewer, they were used for keeping important documents and many other purposes. It may take a very modest form, covered in leather and lined with satin, or it may reach the monumental proportions of the jewel cabinets which were made for Marie Antoinette, one of which is at Windsor, and another at Versailles. Both were the work of Schwerdfeger as cabinet maker, his assistants Michael Reyad, Mitchell Stevens, Christopher Visvis, Degault as miniature painter, and Thomire as chaser.Caskets are often made in precious materials, such as gold, silver or ivory. In ancient East Asia, caskets often made in wood, china, or covered with silk. Some of these caskets could be collected as decorative boxes. Boxes that contain or contained relics are known as reliquaries, though not all were originally made for this purpose. The house-shaped chasse is a very common shape for reliquaries in the High Middle Ages, often in Limoges enamel, but some were also secular.When you make a Gift of this item, you are giving not just a jewelry box, but a work of art too. This jewelry box will certainly make a memorable Gift.

LOVE THIS/BUY A FEW!
THIS IS PERFECT. Well constructed. Getting initials engraved on it. Dads a woodworker..He says "Excellent" quality.Again, a steal AT THIS PRICE AND JUST PERFECT FOR ME. (SORRY ABOUT CAPS..IT GETS STUCK). I am going to put one in the Van, too. I just LOVE this baby..and how do you go wrong, with a gold elephant. Not a weeder but would seem to me..A great place to keep rolled joints or a lil stash (Would hold a 1/4 1/2 oz...ready to roll. Again, better for RYO finished products. EXCELLENT buying experience/quik ship with Prime (I added it on to another order). Be well...Its a great box. Classy. Kings fit PERFECT..!00mm, no. 4x4x4 would be even better, seller.

Exactly as I expected
Exactly as I expected but the metal elephant on tight was scratched but I can live with that because I would probably end up scratching it anyway.

Nice box... horrible smell...
So, just like the title says, it's a very nice looking decorative box. I bought it for my girlfriend who has her ears gauged, so she could store her gauges in it, as an alternative to a traditional jewelery box. First impressions of the box were great. The box has an attractive smooth finish, and the elephant is a little tarnished which gives it some character.Now for the downside... it smells horrible. Almost as if it's been soaked in some sort of varnish, strangely similar to gasoline in smell. Be cautious about what you plan on using this for. It's been airing out for a week now, and the smell is still distinct.

Not to be used as a cigarette box
Very well made but difficult to open and not what I expected..... Expected a cigarette box I could carry around but I kept it as a table catch box

Nice little box.
My box wasnt as pretty as the picture. It seems smaller in person as well. But it is a nice box for the price. I still like it!

ugh. doesn't even close
Bummed out. i got this, it's smaller than i thought but that's ok, i roll my own ciggies so it can easily hold a pack, which is good. I keep my loose tobacco in a humidor so it's very fresh when rolled.This box came WARPED. i mean the lid leves a gap about 1/8th an inch when closed fully. i had to remove the pin that goes into the bottom because it was lined up wrong.i don't know what to do but if this box were even and closed right I'd be giving it 4 or 5 stars.disapointed to say the least. thankfully it's cheap, now I see why

I LOVE THIS BOX
I LOVE THIS BOX!Cutest thing in the world... The only reason why I am only giving 4 stars is because of the size. It's really small.... But beautiful.

Good looking box
I use it to hold cigarettes. Looks good on the desk. It can hold a little over a pack. I may buy the same in a bigger size to hold more.

Nice box with a gold elephant motif stuck onto the lid. It is well made,very smooth and nicely polished on the outside ....a tiny bit rough on parts of the inside. Too small for what I wanted, but that was my own fault, and it's nice enough that I am keeping it.

Piastrina
Molto bella, la piastrina dell'elefante è un po' rovinata

Lightweight, catch too tight to enable opening without picking it up
Nice little box but too light to be able to open the lid without taking the whole box in your hand.Also the catch is tight, so you need to hold the box in both hands to opening. Sadly does not have the weight to make it suitable for the sort of table top use you may require.

Teils verblichene Farben beim Elefanten - Großer Spalt zwischen Ober- und Unterseite
Ich habe dieses Produkt für Deko gekauft. Es kam in einer ordentlichen Verpackung und wurde voraussichtlich beim Transport nicht beschädigt.Das Holz ist wirklich schön und sieht hochwertig aus.Leider sind teilweise die Farben am Elefanten verblichen und teilweise zerkratzt. Das könnte man allerdings als "Used-Look" bezeichnen, wer alles positiv sehen kann. Was aber gar nicht geht, ist der Abstand zwischen der Ober- und der Unterseite. Rechts steht nichts ab, aber links lässt sich die Kiste nicht komplett schließen (ca. 1cm Abstand). Das sieht wirklich sehr billig aus, die Kiste ist zwar nicht sehr teuer, aber auch nicht sonderlich groß, deswegen kann man von einer ordentlichen Verarbeitung ausgehen, was hier leider nicht der Fall war.
