jewelry box

Wow! That is beautiful and unique. You can be sure that you can’t go down to the store and buy one of these. This will be a special treasure to your wife. Nice work!

Jay, I just love your small wooden boxes. I believe that this is the third one you’ve shown us. I appreciate your artistic talent – there are few box makers who would have even thought of the idea of incorporating a child’s drawing into the box design. Absolutely unique and exceptionally well executed.

Jay,

This box now has a lot of sentimental value. What an honor for your wife and children to have such a part in this box’s making and use. It warms my heart to see something like this bring out the love found in a family.

Jay, outstanding box – I think you have just created a Family Heirloom, that will hopefully pass down through many generations. Now, “that’s what I’m talking about” actually means something – Great Job!

Your six year old is quite the artist, like Dad. A lot of personal touches on a very nice jewelry box. Very special.

I love it! Really nice inlay on the escutcheon. I’ll have to give that a try.

It’s the first time I’ve seen this & it stopped me and Mrs YS in our tracks! That marquetry top is a stroke of genius. A wonderful idea and an absolute treasure.

That is so wonderful. Great job on inlaying your child’s drawing. (The inlay on the inside is way cool, too.

What a wonderful box! You’ve successfully celebrated your family with this artistic piece. This mall wooden box, which I just love by the way, is real eye candy!

Remarkable marquetry, very original. I know the competition is stiff and I think this box is one of those easily overlooked gems. Excellent concept and execution and definately not as simple as it first looks. A box your daughter will never part with in her lifetime.
