Arts & Crafts Box

By art_brazee, member Apr 12, 2012

An Arts and Crafts box of quarter sawn white oak with spladed sides The spladed dovetails were very challenging as saw guides weren’t really practical. Square pins are ebony. Finish is fumed with Tried and True varnish.

I spent some time with the overall design, both proportionally and with the details. The box is quite simple looking, but was quite demanding.

The use of outside legs is quite nice. The overall sense I get from this box is that's it's old and from a period gone by. Keep up the good work.
