Tea Box

Wow. Beautifully done. The grain wrap is spot on and the whole project is full of thoughtful details.

Good job on the grain wrap and the box itself. Very nice. It needs an engraved brass plate like an award on the top! LOL

Love the grain on the wrapped maple. Great job Brian!

Beautiful work!
The wood is great and the details really top off a great design.

Very nice work. Ambrosia gives you a great flow to wrap.

Nice looking box, very well done.

Outstanding! The table it sits on is cool too. Question what are the block in the back of the top for?

Peter,
Thanks, glad you like it. The blocks in the back are to hold the screws from the hinges. I should have put a band the whole way across instead of just the blocks. The table it’s sitting on is a project I posted a few days ago.

Thanks everyone for your kind remarks.

Very nice. Beautiful wood.

You did a fantastic job. Love the dark walnut.

Looks great, well done.

-- Change begins somewhere, let it begin with me.

Brian, this is a lovely box. I particularly like the woods you chose. Just by way of sharing information, you might want to consider this style of lift for your boxes. Have you considered rounding the corners of your boxes? It helps show off the grain in a wrap around and it makes construction easier. You have a great eye for the beauty in wood. Keep boxing and keep posting.
