The ancient Egyptians were the first known civilization to revere alabaster for its translucency and beauty. The mineral is not a hard stone and lends itself perfectly to intricate carving. Our swivel box is made by a family who has been working in alabaster for centuries. This functional box features two unique compartments. As alabaster is a natural product, please be aware that there will always be variations in veining and color, making every alabaster product uniquely your own.
Beautiful natural stone pattern. Looks just like the photos. Pleasantly surprised about the weight and feel of the alabaster. I knocked 1 star off because I feel like the swivel feature is a little wobbly and not as sturdy as it should be. Danielle. East Rutherford, NJ. Sat Dec 20 2025
