Mandala Flower Trinket Box - Handcrafted Wood with Inlaid Petals

Every Box Tells a Unique Story

No two boxes are ever the same. This exquisite handcrafted trinket box features a stunning mandala flower design with inlaid wooden petals, each one carefully selected from offcuts of other boxes in our Forest of Dean studio. The result? A genuinely one-of-a-kind piece where the natural wood grain and colour variations create a flower that's uniquely yours.

The intricate mandala pattern adorns the lid, with each petal featuring delicate decorative details – cross-hatching, flowing lines, and ornate fills that catch the light beautifully. Once inlaid, the petals are hand-brushed with Danish Oil, creating a gorgeous shimmer that brings out the depth and character of the natural wood grain.

The Beauty of Zero-Waste Craftsmanship

This box embodies our commitment to sustainable, zero-waste production. The inlaid flower petals are crafted from offcuts of other boxes, giving new life to beautiful wood that would otherwise go unused. Because these petals come from different wood types and batches, each flower has its own unique character – the petal colours will always contrast beautifully with the main box, but the exact combination is never repeated.

It's a celebration of natural materials, thoughtful design, and the beauty that emerges when we work with what we have rather than against it. Your box will be the only one exactly like it in the world.

Exceptional Craftsmanship

A Personal Touch

Make this box truly special with free personalisation. We can engrave a name on the front panel – perfect for birthday gifts, bridesmaids' presents, Mother's Day, or any occasion where you want to create something meaningful and personal. Or leave it blank for a timeless, elegant look. The choice is yours, and there's no extra charge either way.

The Mandala Design

The mandala flower pattern is both intricate and harmonious, with layered petals radiating from a central circle. Each petal features its own decorative pattern – some with delicate cross-hatching, others with flowing lines or ornate fills. The symmetry and detail create a mesmerising effect, whilst the natural wood grain adds organic warmth and character.

The Danish Oil finish on the inlaid petals creates a subtle sheen that catches the light, making the flower appear to shimmer and change as you move around it. It's a tactile pleasure to run your fingers over the smooth wood and feel the slight variations in texture between the different wood types.

A Gift That Matters

Add personalisation, and you've created something that can't be found anywhere else.

It's perfect for milestone birthdays, weddings (bridesmaids will treasure these!), Mother's Day, Christmas, Valentine's Day, or simply as a way to tell someone they're special.
