Project Information

The design of this box was inspired by Bob Dickey.
Small jewelry box/chest. This jewelry box is built from curly maple, spalted maple, and black Walnut. The curly maple from NE Ohio and the black walnut is local (Missouri). The box has two drawers with removable dividers and the top compartment is open for larger items. The box is 10.5" x 8.5" x 8.5". The finish is about 8-10 coats of Waterlox applied by wiping on, allowed to cure then a light rubbing out.

Thanks for looking.

Wow that's a really nice tool box. The wood grain and finish looks spectacular. What are you using to rub out the waterlox?

That is one of the most beautiful and beautifully designed jewelry boxes I've ever seen. The drawers and how you matched the grain really takes it to another level.

Mony, what's not to like about this box? Great job on wood selection, medallion insert, finish, rounded edges, splines, drawer construction, internal dividers, meticulous craftsmanship, and overall design. This is as nice a box as I have seen posted on this site. Super job. You knocked this one out of the park and touched every base. Keep boxing and keep posting.

Thanks for all the kind comments.
I have no plans for the box, I just fly by the seat of my pants while I'm building.
Thanks
