Just a sweet little box here in solid Tiger Maple. I make boxes in a variety of sizes and this mini-box is the perfect size to pick-up and hold in the hand. With it's buttery-smooth finish you might now want to put it back down. See the video to see how the fantastic figure in this box comes to life.
Nothing better shows the quality of work and finish on a box than video so I take quick videos when I can. Please see video of this box here:

The joinery on this box is miters with Padauk (which is a burnt orange color) miter keys which have a dual purpose in adding both a decorative element as well as making the miter joint stronger.
The bottom of this box has been upholstered with a genuine Kimono Silk.
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.
The underside of this box is branded with my branding iron as well as signed and dated.
I have several more of these on the way (with a variety of lining materials and miter keys) so if you need multiple boxes just contact me.
Exterior Dimensions: 6.5" x 5" x 3"
