While I am a card carrying member of the Cherokee nation, I do not consider myself a true native american artist, how I wish I were. I am not to the level that many members of the native American community are, I am truely in awe of their skills and talents and proud to be a member of such a wonderful nation. "Meeting Place" is 12" in diameter and covered with mahogany, figured maple, padauk and wenge. The hands are made of bass wood and painted black. This is a great little wall clock for the home or office or a house warming gift. It comes with a battery operated quartz movement for years of hassle free time keeping. Assembly of the hands is required. We send two sets of hands and easy to follow instructions on how to attache the hands. I do ship overseas to several countries. Please contact me and let me know where you are and I will calculate a shipping cost for you. Please see my shipping and policy section. My items are priced for the American market so any overseas sales do not include any duties. It can be personalized at no additional charge, just let me know before you order.

This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.
We are a small shop but big on service and quality. We tackle big jobs or small and our specialty is marquetry or inlay.
Located in Tulsa, Ok we are centrally located to provide our customers with great service and delivery.
We like a challenge, so we ask you to challenge us. We work with over 50 different species of wood in both lumber and veneers. We also work with metal and glass so we are very versitile . We have recently added a cnc router to our equipment roster and we also have a Epilog laser for marking and cutting.
I have been in the woodworking business for over 20 years and I have produce projects from a simple engagment ring box to a 60 ft x 20 ft ceiling. I have made inlaid wood medallions from 1" in diamer to 5 feet.
We will work closely with you every step of the way. We will even provide prototypes prior to production when possible.
We do our best to meet all deadlines but if it's a choice between being late and making sure the quality is there, we will go with the quality. We would rather you be upset with us because we took too long than because we sent you a poor quality item.

For International shippingI was more than happy with the service I received from Michael. On top of choosing a hand made ring box I also added a custom inlay to it which Michael helped me decide on just to set it off perfectly. When I received the box there were a couple of things I was not completely happy with and when I pointed these out to Michael he made another box and sent it to me free of charge. This kind of service was first class and when you consider that I live in Hong Kong and the shipping alone is $17, this level of professionalism is hard to find.
I cannot recommend Michael's work highly enough and I will be actively seeking out projects that he can help me with, along with recommending him to anyone and everyone that is looking for this kind of custom product.
Thanks again for your great work Michael.

For Inlaid White Swans Engagement Ring Box With Free Engraving And Shipping.I cannot sing Michael Benton's praises enough here and i don't often take the time to a write review but as the service and product was exemplary i felt i had to let everyone else know. I had been looking for a engagement ring box for months in the UK with no luck and then i found Mr Benton and his product was far superior to what i had been looking at and also about half the price of a custom made box in England. Michael kept me up to speed with the order and was extremely helpful and i also received the product extremely fast and at a great rate. If you are looking for a unique ring box look no further!
