About this Product
This keepsake box is a little taller than my standard boxes. It has an interior height of 4-5/8 inches, tall enough to fit a 4-1/2” cardboard box inside. I hand make each exotic hardwood keepsake box from start to finish, meaning every box is a unique, one-of-a-kind, personal gift perfect for commemorating those lifetime special events.
This timeless box is crafted from warm Honduran mahogany and features unique cherry inlays and base, and a mahogany veneer lid. Soft royal blue velvet bottom protects precious objects inside and special hold-open hinges mean the top will rest open unsupported (do not force past open position).
Generic boxes are mass-produced using computers and lasers, and are made of soft inferior woods like pine and oak that easily splinter and chip. But I carefully craft my boxes by hand out of specially selected hardwoods that are not only beautiful but also extremely durable. The inherent rich colors of hardwoods also mean that no staining is necessary; the color will never wear off but will stay warm and luxurious for years to come. I do, however, occasionally stain the mahogany veneer of the lid insert so that it blends better with the natural color of the hardwood box. I always try to use sustainably harvested wood whenever possible.
Experience the difference of artisan craftsmanship with this beautiful wooden keepsake box to preserve your most precious memories and become a timeless treasure for you or a loved one.

Meet the Maker
Woodworking has been a passion of mine for the past 40 years. I especially love making boxes because you can display several different features in one small item.
When I started working with hardwoods I realized that the beauty and distinct character of each wood could shine with nothing but a clear finish on it. This, combined with their strength and durability, make domestic and exotic hardwoods my favorites to work with.
I've made boxes over the years for family and friends as special gifts for weddings and baby showers, and after recently retiring I hope to spend more time in my basement shop creating handmade memories that you can share with your loved ones like I've been sharing with mine.

FAQs
How do I order a photo inlay box?
After you order the box, send me an e-mail with the photo you want used as an
attachment to the e-mail. If there's any issue with the photo (i.e. size or clarity) I'll contact
you and we'll work it out.

I don't do any custom work per say, I only make the items I have listed. I have occasionally
made minor size variations of the items I already sell, but nothing that involves specific colors.
Can you do engraving?
No, sorry, I don't have any way of doing engraving.
