This is a sold box that I'm relisting as a made-to-order item. Please allow 2 weeks for the box to be completed and shipped.
If you're looking for a purple box, this is it. Solid Purpleheart box with Ebony keys. There's not much else to say... it's so very, very... purple.
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 Ebony miter keys which have a dual purpose in adding both a decorative element as well as making the miter joint stronger.
The padded lining is upholstered with premium, black velvet.
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.
Exterior Dimensions: 10.25" x 7.25" x 4.5"
Interior Dimensions: 10" x 6.5" x 3.5"
Depth of Bottom Portion of Box: 2.5″

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.
