This box is made of cherry with a chinese pistache panel in the lid. The sides of the box are joined with half-blind dovetails. The hinge opens only to about 100° so the top cannot flop over backwards. The tray slides to give full access to the bottom compartment. The compartments are lined with red velvet. The box is finished with shellac and wax. Dimensions: width: 17" (43 cm) x depth: 8"(20 cm) x height: 5.5" (14 cm). The ruler is marked in inches.
