Your son and daughter-in-law will be very happy with your work. I too love the inlay.

Very nice box! Is the light wood in the top inlaid, or did you wrap the sides of the box around it?

Very nice inlay, as everybody has said. The colors match nicely. Nice joinery as well.

Thanks for the comments. The inlay is maple also. I felt very honored when my son asked me to build this. It is designed by looking at chests in retail outlets, then adapting my own measurements.
Thanks again for the kind comments.

Seeing the brilliant color of the mahogany in the second photo, it’s hard to understand how mahogany furniture was stained so very dark in the late 19th and early 20th centuries! It is such a beautiful wood ‘au naturel’.
The simple light-colored inlay really sets the top off nicely. What is the inlay material?
