Carved Tufted Treasure Box

1650

This box was constructed out of hard maple with inlayed milled walnut panels, a solid milled walnut top with polished brass hardware and lined with aromatic cedar. This box features precision Cnc milled tufted walnut panels with inlayed polished brass hardware, all inlayed into a finger jointed maple frame and brass piano hinge. I believe I used every tool in the shop to make this one, honing my hand woodworking skills and modifying my Cnc tool paths based on what I am learning from my experimental vases.

A really outstanding project. The "tuffed" walnut really looks like leather.
