The
Legend of the Sand Dollar
There's a pretty little legend that I would like to tell,
Of the birth and death of Jesus found in this lowly shell.
If you examine closely, you'll see that you
find here,
Four nail holes and a fifth one made by a Roman's
Spear.
On one side the Easter lily, its center is the star,
That
appeared unto the wisemen and led them from afar.
The Christmas poinsettia etched on the other side,
Reminds us of His birthday, our happy Christmastide.
Now break the center open and here
you will release,
The five white doves awaiting to spread good
will and peace.
This simple little symbol, Christ left for you and me,
To help us spread his Gospel through all eternity.

These boxes are beautifully handcrafted in South
Carolina. Each one is unique in outward appearance, yet still functional. The wood for each box is American grown cherry and
basswood. The unique lid design is carved within the oval basswood inlay. The wood is carefully chosen so that imperfections
are limited, and each box is constructed with care.
The raised sand dollar gets an artistic touch with custom
burned details, making each one of a kind. The box is hand finished giving a luster to the natural wood grain, and accompanied
with a removable suede lining.
