I folded this Prismoid Box from a large sheet of wax wrapper (Polish: woskowijka), which is cloth soaked in beeswax that can be used as a replacement for disposable food packaging. I additionally coated it with MC. The materials used make this box safe for storing food, and the little foxes are very cute. A while ago I published a review of wax wrappers as folding material.

As for the box, it did hold, and the wax acted as a sort of glue, making the locks stronger. However, the wax wrapper is not very stiff, which on one hand allowed for nicely shaping the curved folds, but on the other made the box less stable it if were to be squeezed or thrown around carelessly.
