The Jewelry Box is made of Spalted Maple and the ribbons are made of Wenge, Purpleheart and Satinwood.  The box has a removable felt insert and a  lift out tray featuring a second small ribbon box.  All wrapping ribbons are mortised in to the body.  I finished it with 3 coats of wipe on poly and steel wool waxed.
