Cocobolo-Veneered Box

By FWW_Gallery, member Oct 24, 2012

Woodworker: David LewisLewis began making this box (10 in. deep by 14 in. wide by 6 in. tall) for his daughter’s 18th birthday. He used shop-sawn cocobolo veneer over solid cherry sides. The top and bottom have a Baltic-birch core with cherry veneer inside and cocobolo outside. The handles, feet, and stringing are ebony, and the finish is a French polish. Lewis completed the box just in time for his daughter’s 20th birthday. From Fine Woodworking #203
