African mahogany document box
Here is an African mahogany hand cut dovetailed document box. Diamond banding on the lid with shell marquetry. Holly banding on the front with another shell marquetry. All brass hardware is from Horton Brasses. Did a French polish with amber shellac. Used a homemade beeswax polish as well.
