Extremely beautiful box! You did an amazing job finishing off that maple. I love the touch of texture on the sides also. Thanks for sharing!

OH MY GOODNESS! I am amazed at the incredible grain of the quilted maple and how you managed to make it DANCE with life! It is not only a work of art, but is has sentimental value that makes it even more precious. This will be cherished for many, many years! Thank you! THANK YOU!

That box will cut you…because MAN is it sharp! I don’t understand how the black/red worked; did you first stain it with ebony, sand it a bit, and then hit it with the red?
