The bog oak used for the main part of the box is from the area of the Sweet Track, a Bronze age trackway in the Somerset Levels near Glastonbury. The wood is approximately 3,000 years old. The beak in particular has some wonderful graining and gentle colour variations.

The lid is carved from bog oak which is from Ireland and is some of the oldest we've worked with. It was dated through dendrochronology by Belfast University and was found to be felled in 3,023 BC at an age of 400 years which makes the wood almost five and a half thousand years old. Both types of bog oak are beautifully rich and deep in colour and they feel full of positive energies.
