Its cylindrical shape and practical size make it a versatile container for storing a variety of items. The cylindrical lid fits snugly over the box, ensuring a precise connection between the two parts. Inside, the box is hollowed out to just under half its total height, while the design of the rounded base gives the piece the appearance of floating. Since wood is softer than most metals, this box is ideally suited for storing jewelry or other small treasures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"tab-stops: 124.2pt;\"\u003eWith their natural, matt surface and thin-walled design, the wooden boxes and bowls from Horst Kontak invite you to pick them up and explore them.The precisely fitting closing mechanism of the container underscores the exceptional quality of the object, while the round base highlights its playfulness. Each piece of wood has an individual grain and coloring, which is particularly impressive thanks to the natural finish and minimalist design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"tab-stops: 124.2pt;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eManufacture:\u003c\/b\u003e The wooden boxes and bowls are carefully handcrafted by Horst Kontak on a lathe. For his work, he mainly uses local woods such as oak, robinia or walnut, which he processes in a dry state. Depending on the design, the individual work steps on the lathe vary slightly, but the basic sequence always remains the same. It is this recurring routine that Horst Kontak particularly appreciates about his work. After processing, the wood remains largely untreated in order to preserve its natural color and texture. If he does decide to treat the wood, he only uses Japanese camellia oil. Among wood turners, the production of a box is regarded as the supreme discipline of the craft, as it is a particular challenge to match the lid and jar precisely.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Horst Kontak","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57621905539445,"sku":"16920028","price":245.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/8908\/8275\/files\/Horst_kontak_holz_dosen-57.jpg?v=1794412058","url":"https:\/\/haptik.de\/en\/products\/horst-kontak-holzdose-ringelesche-handgedrechselt-hk28","provider":"haptik - Galerie für Gebrauchskunst","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
