    Now, THAT'S REALLY NICE!!!! Nice carving on it too!!! Without a lining I'd have that filled with homemade Toffee!!!!!! Otherwise, a great place to put some jewelry that has no boxes!!!!!:):):):singing:

    Lovely box, nice patina on the wood.
    The shape of the heart is called a 'Witch's Heart', it is supposed to protect against witchcraft and evil spirits.
