Purpleheart and American shops Holly Box

Dimensions Exterior: 6 3/4" x 4" x 2"
Interior: 4"x 3 1/8" x 1 1/8"

This fine box is hand crafted by Nick Molignano in his woodworking studio from South shops American Purpleheart, a very hard wood with a tight grain and natural spectacular rich purple color worthy of a Roman emperor combined with the ivory like qualities of American Holly.

They are beautiful containers for jewelry, watches, pens or any special keepsake endearing to the owner. Always a much appreciated gift.

All boxes are sculpted from outstanding exceptional cuts of premium hardwoods from around the world.

The artist uses the grain patterns in these specialty woods to express his artistic vision just as a painter uses his medium to demonstrate his message. T

he work is meant to be as attractive to the eye as well as the touch of the hand.

This functional sculpture slides open with the smoothest action on felt glides. Boxes are fully lined with wine colored plush rayon and have felt feet on the bottom. The exquisite lacquer finish is the finest finish one can apply to wood like a concert grand piano or a great guitar.

Dramatic woods, curvaceous design and attention to detail exemplify fine woodworking art.
