Art Deco Jewelry Armoire Design
Here is a colored pencil drawing of my next piece of furniture that I will be making. My design is in the Art Deco style inspired by Emile Rhulmann. This design is similar to the music box that I just completed. The veneers and hardwoods will be Black Ebony, Macassar Ebony, Holly, Bubinga Burl, with marquetry & Mother of Pearl inlays. The size is 68" tall x 35" wide x 24" deep. Also there will be hidden diamond shaped drawers on both sides. This one should be fun, it will take about a year to make. Thank you for looking!

This will be updated as the build goes on Dennis?
I have the same question as Corelz125 - updates on progress coming?, a year is a long time to wait for pictures. Also, I am interested in the process to achieve the design.
Fantastic, I look forward to seeing this!

For those who are unaware, Dennis wrote an excellent book on building boxes. If you’re curious about his methods, that’s the way to learn!
May you have the day you deserve!
Thank you guys for the kind complements. I was going to do some progress blogs for fun. I appreciate the interest on this piece.
Thank you Dave for the book mention, much appreciated.

You’re welcome, Dennis! I figure working through the book is a good way for impatient people to spend the time while you’re working on this one.
While I don’t think I’ll ever make boxes in your style, it was still fun to read the book and figure tweaks I can make to my own work.

Beautiful concept and the finished project will be amazing.
