Wenge And Birch Jewlery Box With Vertical Necklace Drawers

$2,200

The object of this project was to create a jewelry box that had a better way of storing necklaces. There are a ton of beautiful jewelry boxes out there, but a lot of them lack practical functionality. Every jewelry box that I have looked in usually looks like a spider's web of necklaces with rings and earring trapped inside it. This causes a problem when you actually want to wear the jewelry you are putting in the box. It's so easy to damage valuable and sometime a priceless piece of jewelry when it's stored this way. So my solution to this problem was to build vertical drawers on dovetail tracks. The side drawers pull all the way out and then pivot 90 degrees both ways. This allows you to see the necklaces hanging on both sides without having to bend over or turn your head in an awkward position. With this design you can individually hang up to 34 necklaces. This box also has 7 drawers with adjustable dividers in them to suit your needs. The box is 13 ½" H, 11"W and 9"D and it floats 1 ½ off of the surface on wenge legs that are attached by two brass rods. The options of this box are endless. I can use any wood that you desire and I have a couple of different designs that utilize the vertical drawers. I really enjoyed building this box and I look forward to working with you on yours.

    While I like the product and workmanship, I cannot say I'm very happy with the communication with Christopher. He didn't respond to my initial questions for more than 2 weeks and never responded to my last email regarding when I might expect him to ship my order. While he made my order slightly larger without increasing the cost, which I appreciate, he nevertheless was not in communication with me and it took longer for him to complete the order than was promised. I also was taken aback by the shipping charge fees. For a pretty small package $40 is way more than it should have cost. I expect the increased shipping charges have more to do with increasing the profit of the work than the actual cost of shipping the item, although I cannot verify this.

    I was searching for a one of a kind custom jewelry box for my wife's birthday and found CustomMade and Chris' store. The unique design on his vertical necklace and earring shelves are unlike anything I had seen before and made the most sense given the confined space the box would ultimately be stored. It did take a few days to get an initial response but once I did I got timely responses to all my questions and we went back and forth on design till it was settled with a proposal. They say good things take time and this is true, be prepared to wait, it took about 3 months, but it was worth it. The craftsmanship is stellar, you can tell Chris has worked a long time at this skill. The box is solid and heavy (real wood). The drawers are all smooth action and fit snugly. This is a box that will become an heirloom, which you can only get from quality custom made products.

    I am very happy with the quality of the box. I had asked that the box be modified to have a hinged top. The hinges were placed in a very professional way so that they were almost hidden.
