Pen collectors box
This is a pen collectors box for a friend.
Approximately 13"×9"×4 1/2" high.
Wood is Cocobolo. Grain wrap around. Small ebony splines.
Raised panel bottom set in dato. I used a Shaker raised panel bit from Whiteside.
Top is beveled glass. 12 7/8" × 8 1/2" 1/4" thick (tempered) Custom order from Dulles Glass. It was an on line order. About $100
The insert is leather. Ordered off Amazon from Monteverde. Holds 12 pens. About $70
Brusso JB102 brass hinges.
The brass knob was purchased many years ago.
This will be a gift for a very close friend.

Beveled glass is expensive. I have so.e old panels from salvage yard. 2 a little larger than this one.

Excellent box Petey.
Real nice looking box Petey
Awesome work Petey!
Really great job with the cocobolo, that stuff is kinda mean to work.
I really like the decision to keep the lid transparent, cut glass makes it even more special.
