It may sound like an old method, but I find it unique and effective.

  "  Inside the box is a small wooden box (which needs to be opened with a small key)
with a thin glass bottle and thin paper wrapped around the bottle,
which is written on it "Bitcoin BTC Seed. "


That means:
If you try to open or break the wooden box without the key, the glass bottle inside will break and acid will come out and destroy the paper writing, so there will be no chance of theft!!!  I thought that instead of acid, using lemon juice and light pen writing would be much safer.
True, this is indeed a very old method, exactly (in principle) described by Leonardo da Vinci (Cryptex).

If you try to open or break the wooden box without the key, the glass bottle inside will break and acid will come out and destroy the paper writing, so there will be no chance of theft!!!   
That's right, there will be no theft. As well as your seed phrase. And your investments.

                 (If you don't have a hardware wallet, you can think about it.)
Hardware wallet is used to perform completely different functions - to securely store and use the contents of the wallet in a way that doesn't compromise the seed phrase on the network (due to the need to physically press buttons to confirm a transaction).
