Dennis, Wonderful box , thanks for posting.
Tom.
I really love this design. I love how the roses are carved on the top and the marquetry on the inside of the box match in style.
Dennis, how did you come up with this design?
Thanks for sharing....Very exquisite box.
Hi Gofigure57, Thank you for the complement.
Hi Little1, I designed it for my Sister. She died around three months ago. She was 44 years old. I named the box "Little sister". Thank you for your kind complements.
Dennis, very inspiring. Beautiful from every angle. Your eye for detail is amazing. Thanks for sharing. Mike
Hi Krassel, I first, had to model this box in clay before I could start cutting wood. Thank you for the complements.
Dennis, I am so sorry to hear about your sisters passing. Please accept my warm condolences. The box you have designed and built is a beautiful piece of work in her honor. I hope that viewing this open piece of art will bring back good memories of your sister.
Excellent work.

My sincerest condolences to you and your family. The box and carvings are gorgeous.
