These elegant cases are made and covered with jewel-like marquetry straw, meticulously flattened by hand, dyed and then applied with exactness. They are a luxurious addition to any dressing room to hold jewellery, or in a study to hold stationary or a collection of pens, or even to house those precious cigars. 

The marquetry is customizable in pattern and colour.

Care Instructions

Straw marquetry is a centuries-old artisanal technique, valued for its natural lustre, precision and delicacy. With thoughtful care, each piece can retain its beauty for many years.

As straw is an organic material, it should be protected from humidity, direct heat and excessive handling. Dust gently with a soft, lint-free cloth and avoid abrasive sprays or chemical cleaners. Each piece is finished with beeswax for protection.

To maintain the surface over time, apply a few drops of mineral oil or petroleum jelly to a lint-free cloth and wipe gently across the marquetry. Avoid the edges, as excess moisture or oil may lift the straw fibres.

Do not place heavy, rough or textured objects directly onto the marquetry surface.
Suggested Uses

Jewellery, cigars, pen collections etc.
