The Tea Box

Project by AkumAnubis posted 260 days ago 600 views 2 times favorited 9 comments Add to Favorites Watch

This is a box I made for work to hold my herbal tea. It is made from black walnut and the finish is 4 coats of polymerized tung oil. All hand tool work with no hardware used. The symbol on the lid is the japanese kanji letter for tea (ocha).

Very nice! You did a great job. Wooden tea caddies were very popular back in the old, olden days.

It takes patience to make really good tea. (Green for me)

Doing this with handtools shows you have patience.
