Tansu style jewelry box
This is a tansu inspired jewelry box for my niece’s graduation/birthday present. Her Japanese middle name is carved into the earing drawer. The box is made of cherry with some baltic birch plywood as a secondary material. The ring pulls are handmade from brass with a black patina. The finish is shellac and wax.

The handmade brass pulls are a wonderful feature. I like the arrangement for the earrings, with that tall slide-out panel, and the carving of her name makes this present very special indeed.
The side pull for the earrings is great, easy to keep them sorted. Now if I could just read Japanense... It will something for her to treasure for years to come.
In all my woodworking years I have never seen such a handsome box.It reminds me of my son. Great workmanship!
Beautiful work. You have made me jealous.
