This box was made for my sister in law, Robyn.  All wood for the box is bird's eye maple save for the sliding trays (European sycamore), the bottom (sycamore veneered ply) and the feet (ebony).  The lid 'panel' is in fact a number of frame members and seven panels.  The knot hole in the centre panel contains three garnets encased in casting resin.  These garnets were found by Robyn's father Bill (now deceased) on some of his many trips fossicking for precious and semi-precious stones.
