Very nice box. Looks great.

-- Donnie-- listen to the wood.

Good job. I like the splined miters. The fabric you use is pretty cool. It looks like some kind of paisley design. Where did you get it?

Fantastic box inside and out….That little tray and the liner really set it off nicely : )

-- I'm absolutely positive that I couldn't be more uncertain!

This is high on my list of wow boxes beautiful.

A beautiful box and the craftsmanship looks outstanding! Love that grain!

-- Never board, always knotty, lots of growth rings

Thanks for all the comments!

The felt inside does have sort of a paisley pattern. It came from a JoAnn’s Fabric & Craft store. My girlfriend shops there for her custom invitation/card business. I had her pick me up a variety of different pieces of felt, this is one of the ones she came back with. They had it in a couple different colors, plus some other patterns including alligator skin.

Looks very great…Nice combination of colors . I never have worked with redwood before since I dont normally see it her in southern Louisiana. Never seen it at Home Depot. Our local softwood is cypress. Someone gave me a very old piece of sinker cypress this morning and it is beautiful. Might end up as a box

Boy figured redwood is sexy. Really nice box.

Gorgeous Box, David. Top-flight workmanship…
Excellent job on the photography too!!

-- Mike in Concord, NH---Unpleasant tasks are simply worthy challenges to improve skills.

looks good

Ditto to everything they said… I’ve got to ask though… You say your mother loves California Redwoods. How did she feel about you chopping one down to make her a [beautiful] box? ;)

Beatuiful box. The figured piece for the top, really adds a great look to it. I’m sure your mom will cherrish it for years..
