This box is made with curly maple wood. It was a birthday gift for my friend and business partner, Jay. The outside carvings are inspired by those old, antique cigar boxes. The copper stamped detail on the top right of the door is a tribute to his birth year. There are lots of details inside – wooden rulers as drawer backs and peg backs; vintage war posters are lining the bottom of the drawers; a removable watch rack; slide-by doors with a cut out and trimmed square as a grip; another container is enclosed with a door that opens down and is detailed with a red “handmade” thumbprint stamp. Inside the door on the lower, right corner is my signature initials carved in. The door is held securely shut with magnets in the corners.
With all of the compartments and the watch holding rack this is a design suited for a man to store his jewelry and other small treasures.
