I am a retired physician who makes jewelry, keepsake, memorial, and decorative boxes that are typically commissioned by people who wish to give them as gifts. I have been doing this for several years, but have focused on working with exotic hardwoods and more intricate designs since I retired about three years ago. While there are a lot of woodworkers who enjoy making small boxes, I believe that I have been able to differentiate myself from them because I have developed my marquetry skills and now do almost all my decorative and inlay work with a double bevel technique that I learned from the artisan David Marks.
I work alone and handcraft every item to meet the unique specifications of my customers. Typically, they provide me with a reference image and a design request. I then execute the project in about 2 to 3 weeks, spending about an equal amount of time on the construction and finishing of the work. A typical example of this is provided in my project entitled “Keepsake Box for Sailboat Captain.” In addition, I make some of my own designs that I sell. The butterfly marquetry jewelry box project is a good example of this.
My goal is to have the joy of engaging in my hobby while recovering the cost of my materials while have a bit extra to add a few new tools. But, most importantly, I want to be able to provide a unique prized decorative box that fills a special need.

For Display case (jewelry box like)5.0Dennis’s expertise with intricate boxes was perfect for a special display case I requested of him. Dennis was fun to talk to and easy to work with right from the beginning even though I gave him incomplete information which added complexity and difficulty to the task. He seemed to thrive on solving problems and adding creative ideas. He was very detailed in his descriptions and every commitment he made he followed through exactly.
The end product was perfect and has the look and feel of a true craftsman-made product. Sure, it was a bit expensive, but you get what you pay for and I'm certain he spent tons of time on this. I'd go back to Dennis in an instant. - AK
