Treasure Boxes

Beautiful treasured items deserve a special place to be kept. Whether it’s a family heirloom, a special piece of jewelry or a prized crystal, my treasure boxes are a unique way to store your precious items. They are made from sustainable North American walnut and maple. The unique shapes I design are cut out using my bandsaw and carefully laminated. Inside the drawer is soft flocking and each box has a little gem for a pull. Each box has a hand drawn design making every box a one-of-a-kind. 

I love making these, but they take a lot of time. The boards are cut and planed before being laminated into large rectangles. Those are cut down into blocks and that’s when I draw on the organic designs. Using my grandfather’s bandsaw from the 50’s I cut out the shape, the drawer, the back and the bottom. Everything is sanded, the back and bottom are laminated back together and then everything has to be sanded down until it’s nice and smooth. Then I can finish the inside of the drawer with flocking and attach the drawer pull. Polish is applied and the box is ready to house your treasures.
