This box has sides made from Mahogany and a Redwood top that has a nice warm "glow" to it.
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 Ebony 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 a quality upholstered, velvet lining. My interiors are precision fit and installed.
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.
