In three small towns (villages) in China they have continued the tradition of hand carving bone and stone. Since these boxes take so long to make, each box takes a minimum of 12 hours, production of each piece is limited to 100 and will not be reproduced again. For over a decade, Jo Marz has combined unusual imported and domestic materials, semiprecious stones and unique findings to create highly collectible designs that are hand crafted by artisans. If this is your first Jo Marz item, or if you are an avid collector, we share your dedication to the finest products and distinctive designs.


          Please note that the item shown is a representation only. Part of the beauty of each box is that they are hand carved from a block of soapstone one at a time. Because of this intense process, no two will be exactly the same. Variations in color are also to be expected. Box colors will range from ivory to dark brown and the veins that naturally run through the blocks of soapstone create their own unique colors that can range anywhere from off white to pink to different shades of brown. All these factors enhance the collectibility and beauty of these one-of-a-kind boxes.Hand carving stone is a tradition that has been preserved throughout the generations. Because each box takes a minimum of 12 hours to create, only a limited amount are made and that design will not be reproduced again.
