For the wife

[ken69912001]

I made this box for the wife to use for whatever. The wood is curly quilted maple. The top of the bow is KHAYA or African mahogany
For the handle I used a piece of curly Koa. Lacquer finish which i actually wet sanded with my micromesh and hand polished with Maguires scratch remover.

Thanks everyone for the great comments. I am in the process of making one that pens will fit in for my craft shows. It will have waterfall bubinga for the top.

Man Kenny, that is absolutely beautiful. I used to make boxes before I got a lathe[], but nothing like that.
