This box features sides made of Mahogany and a top from a piece of figured Walnut Burl that shows subtle tiger stripe figure with varying light or perspective of the viewer. This small box is well suited to hold your select, treasured keepsakes.
This attractive little box is lined in genuine black leather.
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 Walnut 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.
