That is a wonderful jewelry box and you did an excellent job on it. One of the nicest things about woodworking is that we can make nice things for our loved ones.

Looks like you got hold of some very nice maple. What did you use to pop the grain? Your niece will really love this.

i did nothing to the grain other than sanding and using poly it was just naturally this way. i believe it came from the stump of the maple

Nice jewelry box! I'm working on my first box right now but with mitered corners, it's not easy. Good job!

I wasn't going to sign in. I only have time for a quick look before I get to the shop. BUT, that is nice! The contrast on the sides works and that top is beautiful. Those two elements of the grain of the maple plus the curl really catch my eye. You have a good eye for what makes an appealing box.
