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 well-executed keepsake box has all the fine details including an elegantly inlaid border on the top, upholstered lining, and attractively finished to a high shine gloss.
The sides of this box are Brazilian Cherry with an attractive grain that flows from side to side. The top is Katalox, also known as Mexican Royal Ebony. It's a very dense material that takes a high polish. Inlaid into the top is a sleek wood banding made of Kingwood and Holly to accentuate and frame the gorgeous Katalox top.
The padded lining is upholstered with a quality black velvet fabric.
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.
