The chest sides are made from a single Quilt Hard Maple board that has been re-saw, and re-joined in assembly to create a beautiful grain-wrap pattern at the corners. Solid-wood Black American Walnut, book-matched tops with Purpleheart boarder. The corners of the jewelry boxes are mitered and accented with 4 pairs of splines, made from a contrasting wood. The tray is Walnut with Purplehart handle. The jewelry chest is 11” x 6 3/4” x 3”. Finished with two coats of M. L. Campbell Satin Krystal which is post-catalyzed conversion varnish finishing system which is Water white and non-yellowing.
