1. My first adult project, based on plans in woodsmith 47. Walnut.
2., 3., 4. Three others of the same design, where the top marquetry was replaced by the girls names scrolled in matching or contrasting woods. 2 is Maple, 3 is Cherry, 4 is bloodwood and Ebony (shown).
5. A different design that I kind of threw together myself. Includes the Jewelry Box Chain Carousel (Brusso). Walnut.

Hi Jeff,
These are nice looking boxes. I am having a little trouble viewing them however as the pictures are too small. But I can see them well enough to know that the marquetry gives a nice visual element to the boxes.
Thanks for the post.

I agree about the pictures being too small.
