About this Piece

This divided salt box is made using sustainable acacia wood, measuring 6" round by 3" high. This solid wood box has been stamped on the back with the artist's custom brand. See this page and photo for size comparison to Kathryn’s original divided salt boxes.

The salt box lid has been finished with food safe resin, and features a swivel lid with a magnetic closure. There are two carved compartments inside, suitable for storing different types of salt, spices or vanity items. The lid is snug but not airtight.

This salt box ships packaged in a recyclable black gift box with compostable paper shred and care information. Shop other round boxes, tea boxes, and round or rectangular trays for coordinating designs.

Cleaning instructions: Wipe clean with a damp cloth. The flat resin box top can be cleaned with glass cleaner or soap and water. Condition the wood by wiping with mineral oil and a soft cloth. Not recommended for storing liquids, immersion in water, or prolonged outdoor use.

About this Species

Anemones

Anemones start their life as plankton, before attaching themselves to a spot on the rocky shore, in a tidepool or on the sea bottom. They eat small crabs and fish as well as small marine invertebrates. Their green colour comes partially from a symbiotic relationship with microalgae.

Aggregating anemones can reproduce sexually or asexually, and can form large, genetically identical colonies. These colonies can engage in territorial conflict for control of an area.
