Kenyan Soapstone Face Box – Carved Lidded Trinket Box by Besmo

This unique lidded box from Kenya is hand-carved from solid soapstone and features a stylized face design, blending traditional African artistry with modernist form. Made by Besmo, a known exporter of African handicrafts during the mid-20th century, this piece carries its original "Genuine Besmo Product – Made in Kenya" label on the underside.

The box opens to reveal a smooth, rounded interior—perfect for storing jewelry, keepsakes, or simply displayed as a sculptural object. 

Dimensions: 3.5ʺ W × 5ʺ D × 3ʺ H

Condition: There are no obvious flaws, the nature of a hand sculpted piece shows tool markings and is an imperfect craft.
