Faceted Koa Box

The thick slab of figured koa that makes up the lid of this box is beveled at the edge to highlight its depth. The striated carcass matches it note for note in color and grain and the rosewood trim and splines lend just the right tone to complete this little gem. Lined with aromatic cedar, signed and dated, finished with Ultrasuede. 2-1/4" x 5-1/4"

    Tim was an absolute pleasure to work with on my project. He went above and beyond to help me turn a drawing that I made into a physical object that I know I will treasure for years and generations to come. He is so knowledgable on his craft, so do not be afraid if you aren't aware of how wood and other materials work (I surely wasn't). I couldn't recommend him more. Worth every penny and more. Look no further!!!
