Contrasting Contemporary Jewelry Box
These jewelry boxes are an excellent blend of contemporary style and traditional craftsmanship. Each box is constructed of one of three woods with one of five contrasting woods. The right side vertical drawer has angled slats with notches for storing earrings. The left side has a place to hang bracelets and necklaces. All of the drawers have dividers with black velvet lining. There is an optional eighth drawer for watches with removable dividers. There is also an option for an asymmetrical drawer layout (not pictured) with a pivioting necklace slider. This layout also includes the earring drawer and a smaller watch drawer. All horizontal drawers are constructed of maple with secondary wood drawer fronts. The basic dimensions of the box are 12 3/8w (16 3/4 with connected legs) x 9 h (10 1/2" with legs) x 8 deep . There are four leg options small feet, connected tapered legs or tapered legs connected by either brass or aluminum pins. Each box is made to order individually from rough cut lumber. If you have any questions feel free to ask. I look forward to working with you and Thanks for looking.

Customer Reviews

Dec 30, 2016I 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.

Dec 13, 2016I 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.

Nov 14, 2016Enjoyed working with Cjs Woodworks/Chris on a big project for one of our clients. His timeliness, communication and craftsmanship were top-notch and the client couldn't be happier with final result. Thank you for all your hard work, Chris! We would HIGHLY recommend Cjs Woodworks for any project you might have, big or small. You will not be disappointed.

Aug 12, 2016While 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.
