This is a sold box that I'm relisting as a made-to-order item. Please allow 2-3 weeks for the box to be completed and shipped.
This box combines the rich dark tones of Walnut with visually engaging figure of Birdseye Maple.
This box has a fully upholstered bottom to provide a deluxe interior. The five panels are individually upholstered with furniture grade materials and topped with a quality black velvet for this added touch of luxury which I only do for select boxes.
I find that pictures just don't capture the real life appeal of my boxes so I shoot videos when I can. Please see video of this box here:

The joinery on this box is miters with Maple miter keys which have a dual purpose in adding both a decorative element as well as making the miter joint stronger.
Finished with a variety of products to enhance the grain as well as provide a high-gloss appearance. Finishing is the most variable and potentially complex part of woodworking. I easily spend the majority of time in my builds in finishing. Many stages... many products are involved in order to achieve what you see in my final products.

On the undersides of all my boxes you'll find my own, unique, label which I spent months having custom designed and commissioned through a printer for my heirloom boxes.
