Know before you buy
The interior space measures approximately 3.5 inches in height and 0.75 inches in depth. It is designed for small items like rings, earrings, or tiny keepsakes rather than larger jewelry pieces.
The magnetic clasp is designed to keep the lid securely closed for display purposes. While it holds the lid shut firmly, it is intended for decorative storage rather than travel or heavy-duty use.
The box is crafted from pewter and finished with enamel and faux jewels. While it is a sturdy, well-made piece, it should be handled with care to preserve the intricate detailing and the luster of the decorative stones.
The lost wax method is a traditional metal casting technique that allows for highly detailed, intricate designs. This process ensures the King Tut figure retains sharp, museum-quality features that would be difficult to achieve with standard molding.
The box is weighted at 1 pound, providing a stable base. It is designed to sit securely on flat surfaces like shelves, desks, or vanity tops without tipping over.
