We are working with a woodworker who is trying to perfect the boxes and if he does I will pass on the information to you.
He sourced some Kiri wood from a small kiln/lumber yard locally. The first try was OK but not up to standard.
Email me in a month or so to see if he figures it out.

Last year, at the Festival, they gave us 5 boxes.
