drawers slightly pulled out. The handles are the runners. This idea was inspired by Krenov.

This box is lacewood and purple heart. The branches are wenge and the leaves are cocobolo. The handles were inspired by James Krenov and are the runners for the drawers.  The drawers are maple and are dovetailed.  This box is one of my favorites.
