Don, exceptional build. The quilted maple looks great. The timbers really complement each other.

Lovely work. The ebony trim on the opening edge works very nicely with the maple and the interior. Striking box.

Don,
There certainly are a myriad of beautiful details in this box. I love the wood choices and the design.

Thank you everyone, I do believe that a box should look better inside than out. Thank you Roger I find the Ebony steps it up a notch or two, and my customers seam to prefer it as well. It is however getting very difficult to round up Ebony all the time not to mention Expensive. Right now for the larger pieces I bring it in from New York.

lovely box both inside and out!
Very well done. I am a huge fan of ebony myself. You have great skill and the choice of contrasting colours make this a wonderful piece to be proud of. Great work.
