The lid, featuring a grooved engraving, adds a special touch and gives the box an elegant look. Since wood is softer than most metals, the box is perfect for storing jewelry or other small treasures. With their natural, matte finish and thin-walled design, Horst Kontak’s wooden boxes invite you to pick them up and explore them. The precise fit of the lid underscores the exceptional quality of these pieces. Each piece of wood has a unique grain and color, which are particularly striking thanks to the natural craftsmanship and minimalist design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"tab-stops: 124.2pt;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eManufacturing:\u003c\/b\u003e Horst Kontak carefully handcrafts the wooden boxes and bowls on his lathe. For his work, he primarily uses local woods such as oak, black locust, or walnut, which he works with once they are dry. Depending on the design, the individual steps on the lathe vary slightly, but the basic sequence always remains the same. It is this repetitive routine that Horst Kontak particularly values in his work. After processing, the wood is largely left untreated to preserve its color and texture as naturally as possible. If he does decide to treat the wood, however, he uses only Japanese camellia oil. Among woodturners, making a box is considered the pinnacle of the craft, as it presents a particular challenge to ensure that the lid and the box fit together perfectly.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Horst Kontak","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57369770066293,"sku":"16920010","price":175.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/8908\/8275\/files\/Horst-kontak-holzdose-schmuckdose-haptik-110.jpg?v=1786526317","url":"https:\/\/haptik.de\/en\/products\/horst-kontak-holzdose-bergahorn-handgedrechselt-hk10","provider":"haptik - Galerie für Gebrauchskunst","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
