Peruvian Walnut and American Maple Box
comments (1) January 31st, 2011 in Reader's Gallery
Carcass is Peruvian Walnut with Maple featherslips. Top lid is Maple with Ebony handle, which is attached with wood dowels. Front decoration is semi-inlaid river rock, glued in with CA. Inside floor is black velour wrapping cardboard. Oak ply for a bottom. Tung Oil finish with Goddards Paste Wax finish. I enjoyed making this box. Dramatic look.
