Box in four woods

Orange Blossom Box

Orange blossom in marquetry, on a box of smoked oak.

Story of the piece

Orange Blossom Box

Wood preserves what time cannot erase.


There is an innate delicacy in its pure white, in the fragrance that is felt and lingers over time. The Orange Blossom is innocent and makes us believe. In the small joys of life, in subtle gestures. In candid sweetness.

Jacky Cavallari graduated from the École Boulle and is today one of the few living masters of Marquetry - the art that brings colour, texture and life to wood. With the precision that time does not hasten.

For this Smoked Oak box, the craftsman chose four natural woods, such as Fraké (Limba), Bird's Eye Maple stained white, Light Guava and Ipê to bring the Orange Blossom to life. Veneer upon veneer, with the same traditional marquetry technique used in the 18th century.

A box to keep what we want to believe in.
