One day my wife came home sad, One of her friends mom had passed away and she was looking and looking for a small display case for her mom’s rosery beads. She wanted to display them in rememberence. So I put my brain to work and came up with this display case.
It measures 3.5”X10”X16” I added a small drawer for the cloth bags they were kept in while she searched.
I added a small bit of detail to the glass fo good measures.

This is a nice cabinet. I hope that it helped your wife in her time of grief. Giifts from the heart, such as this, are wonderful to receive (and create as well).

What a clever little chest – I like the etched glass detail. Should make an excellent display for the Rosary. The storage drawer is a nice touch.

Thank you all for the gracious comments. When she first seen it she didnt know what it was for then w told her and she cried and thought it was perfect. That makes us wood workers feel GREAT!
