Sushi-4-2 Box


This box is made of curly ambrosia maple and sapele woods.  Solid brass hardware is imported from China (http://www.chinesebrasshardware.com/).  It's a whimsical creation that appeals to folks who like sushi.  It was just a fun excercise at first but I have sold six of these things.
