Handmade 11 x 7.75 x 5" Curly Maple Mitered Keepsake/Jewelry Box with Black Limba Lid and Accents
Overview A heirloom-quality, handcrafted keepsake box designed to protect and display treasured jewelry and mementos. Meticulously mitered corners, premium woods, and a careful blend of contrasting tones create a timeless statement piece for any dresser, dresser top, or keepsake shelf.
Key Features
- Size: 11" long x 7.75" wide x 5" tall
- Exterior: Moderately Figured Curly maple sides with a black limba lid and black limba miter splines
- Lid lift: Black limba lid lift for smooth opening and subtle detail
- Interior tray: Two-compartment tray made from ambrosia maple with a canary wood bottom
- Tray hardware: Hemp twine wrap handle for a rustic, tactile pull
- Hinges: Brass hinges that stop at 90 degrees for secure, open-position stability
- Finish: Exterior lacquer for durable, high-gloss protection; interior finished with wood oil/wax for a warm, protective sheen
- Lining: Green felt padding on the interior bottom and tray surfaces to cushion and complement the wood tones
- Craft: Handmade, heirloom-quality construction with attention to precise joinery and finish
Materials
- Exterior: Curly maple (sides) and black limba lid with black limba miter splines
- Interior: Ambrosia maple tray with canary wood bottom
- Hardware: Brass hinges; hemp twine wrap tray handle
- Finishes: Exterior lacquer; interior oil/wax finish; green felt lining
Interior Layout
- Two-compartment tray designed to organize jewelry, keepsakes, or small collectibles
- Tray bottom and interior surfaces finished to protect items from moisture and wear
- Green felt lining provides a soft, luxurious resting surface
Durability and Craftsmanship
- Mitered construction delivers clean, seamless corners and a refined silhouette
- Brass hinges are chosen for durability and a classic touch
- Lacquer exterior finish guards against daily handling, while the oil/wax interior finish enhances wood depth and warmth
- Handcrafted with attention to detail to ensure long-lasting heirloom quality
Care and Maintenance
- Wipe exterior with a soft, dry cloth; avoid harsh cleaners
- If needed, lightly buff interior with a soft cloth to maintain the oil/wax luster
- Keep away from direct sunlight for extended periods to preserve color and finish
Why This Box Stands Out
- Striking material contrast: curly maple with black limba creates a sophisticated, contemporary look
- Thoughtful interior design: two compartments, ambrosia maple, canary bottom, and green felt deliver both beauty and function
- Heirloom quality: precise joinery, durable hardware, and premium finishes built to be treasured for generations
What’s Included
- One handmade keepsake/jewelry box as described
- No extra items are included beyond the box itself
Product Notes
- Because this item is handmade, there may be natural variations in wood grain and color, which add to its unique character.
