So here's the story on my box. In 1990 I met a man who would come to be a life-long friend - in Cairo Egypt. He gifted me this box later in life. It's beautifully crafted - never used - I have no knowledge of how old it actually is. I went to visit him in San Jose Costa Rica a few years after that. It was then he gave me "the box" to remind me of our time in Egypt. At that time I did not know his time was limited. He did pass on. I've kept "the box" on display in a cabinet for many years. Time for me to now pass it along too. It measures 8.5" long 4.6" wide and 2" deep. It is in immaculate condition. I hope it's going to a good home where it will become a treasure to the new owner. His name was Art Graham.. He was a global traveler. I had no idea how long he possessed "the box"
