Handcrafted Wood Men's Valet Boxes

Man's Valet Box VM-3

11" x 9" x 3-1/4"

Cocobolo, Golden Ceylon satinwood

Finish - Urethane high gloss finish

Brass hinges

Fashioned from beautiful ribbon-stripped cocobolo, this box is lined with black and gold "bee" pattern woven heavy (and costly) fabric.

The underside of the top is "picture frame" paneled in contrast to the top being flush. 

The box is slightly higher than I normally make them at 3 1/4" high with lid closed. 

The top is a mosaic of Ceylon satinwood and cocobolo in the Maltese cross pattern that presents a striking contrast. 

It is finished mirror-smooth with urethane varnish that becomes scuff and scratch resistant after fully curing in about 6 months. 

Side panels are 5/16" thick and the box is fairly heavy.
