Resawed and bookmatched Claro walnut front doors, with the rest of the slab of walnut cut into veneer for the body of the box. Maple ear ring frames and drawers with bloodwood pulls.

This was a rush job, built in 17 days for a wedding gift.

could make one like that for our daughter.

I told her I could if we could get the plans for it.

I don't know if you would be interested in sending me a
copy of it, I will be more than willing to pay for them.

Please let me know as soon as possible, for I would like to
make it for her birthday which is on July 25th.

My E-mail address is rjvjev@aol.com.

Thank you very much.
