Nice natural finish
The raw surface is smooth enough to start working immediately. The color is consistent throughout the piece.

Beautiful antique display piece
Even uncarved, this looks stunning on my desk as an antique display item. The grain pattern is fascinating.

Authentic Hubei quality
You can tell this is genuine boxwood. The weight is substantial, making it a great paperweight even before carving.
