I build boxes for a few galleries and when I do a run of boxes I always build a few extras. This time around I have 8 extra boxes, 5 rectangular and 3 square. The boxes are built of different species of hardwoods with various burl or spalted tamarind inlays. The lid lifts are fractal burned hardwood, various species. The corners are mitered with dovetail splines installed in the corners for strength. The boxes are finished with hand rubbed oil and wax. The liners are embossed vinyl and depict butterflies, dragon flies and flowers. I call these boxes utilitarian art boxes and usually they sell to people who have a nice watch or bracelet and they need a place to keep it overnight. The square boxes are 5”x5”x2 1/4” high, inside usable space about 1 1/2” depth. $215.00 each shipped. I charge more for the square boxes because of the additional work required. The rectangular boxes are 6”x3 3/4”x 2 1/4” high, inside usable space is 1 1/2” depth. $175.00 each shipped. Pm me if you have any questions about certain boxes. If you order within the next week or so they will arrive for Valentines Day. Here are a couple that haven’t sold. They are both built out of Jarrah, an Indonesian hardwood that was used in a business building floor and the floor was water damaged and the floor warped so they replaced the wood. I salvaged enough for a bunch of boxes and these 2 are some of them. The inlays are madrone burl and the lid lifts are fractal burned Jarrah also. The embossed vinyl liner material was made by Chinese virgins.. $175.00 each shipped.
