A richly grained hand-carved lidded box in sheesham (Indian rosewood), featuring a striking geometric diamond lattice border carved around the perimeter of the base. The circular turned lid sits perfectly inset into the square-form body and is topped with a smooth turned ball finial — a satisfying, tactile detail that invites you to pick it up. The interior reveals a smooth, polished circular well with beautiful natural wood grain in deep amber and mahogany tones.
This style of carved wooden box is a hallmark of Indian folk craft tradition, likely made in Rajasthan or Uttar Pradesh. The combination of the square base with a circular inset lid is a classic form, and the rich sheesham grain makes each piece entirely one-of-a-kind. A beautiful desk accessory, jewelry box, or decorative accent for a bookshelf or side table.
