That finish is truly artistic! It makes the wood seem almost liquid. I’m impressed is an understatement.

-- Robb

OK, OK, give me a break from this eye candy! Wow! I’m not sure my heart can take much more. I’ve never thought of the fact that I just love small wooden boxes as a fetish – but I am beginning to wonder. LOL

This is terrific – fluid – molten – alive!

Looks like you were thinking outside the box! Incredible artistry. What did you use to finish the box?

Andy your boxes are at a whole new level – up there with Don’s and very few others. I really like the “forming” and wood selection. I’ve read in another post that you use Deft lacquer for these boxes. Would you please take a minute and be a little more specific on the finishing technique?

It almost looks like the box melted. Just wonderful.

Wow! I was down in the shop making a box. I think I might toss it in the burn pile. These are great. I’m going to take up cross stitch.

Ah come on Mot – just because Andy is a Michelangelo of boxes there’s still time to become a Cellini of boxes. I certainly won’t give up. He just inspires me to try harder.

Andy, you are one of a kind. Most excellent. This series of boxes are inspired and inspiring.

Extraordinary…amazing look!

Congrats Andy, you almost made our mate Don faint with your flowing box!

It’s a truly exceptional box that of yours. It clearly reminds me of the melting clocks of some of most famous Dali’s paints. Please, tell us more about the actual process of shaping the lid.

first: awwwwwwwwwwwwwww you made it for your daughter because you love her a lot!!!

the box is beautiful.. it almost looks like a cloth box, as its shape “distorts” with dips and dives.
I can’t wait to see the video of you carving the shape of a box (hint hint)

Wow, there is nothing I can say that would do justice to that box. Andy, the box itself is a special occasion.
