Description

The origin of the octagonal inlaid wooden box, like the one pictured, can be traced to the Middle East, specifically Syria and Lebanon, with similar craftsmanship also found in Morocco and Oman. These boxes are part of a tradition of inlaid woodwork known as "Damascene" or "Syrian Mosaic" work, characterized by intricate geometric patterns created with various types of wood, mother-of-pearl, and sometimes bone or metal. The craft dates back centuries and is still practiced today.
