Box - "In Memoriam"

This box was created as a commemorative piece for a friend's beloved pet and now holds the dog's ashes. Dramatic bird's eye koa wraps around the sides, and the wild figure on the lid reminded me of Piccolo's questioning look. The trim wood is Indian rosewood, the box is lined with cedar and finished with Ultrasuede. It's signed, dated, and inscribed. The wood is very dense and makes a bell-like sound when jostled.
