    Default Meranti oval lidded box

    This oval box with lid is made of a thick sheet glued meranti, consisting of various types of meranti.
    I received this recently from an old friend who surprised me more with such things.
    It does have something special, a box with lid with different types of meranti, I had to get used to it, you might also...)))
    Axis dimensions, 145x115 mm Height 77 mm
    Finished with acrylic stain
    Cheers, Ad

    Nice gift indeed, Ad

    Kind of a Shaker inspired design.
    Cheers,

    Default Another meranti oval lidded box

    I got some requests for more oval lidded boxes, but can not reward all, as my turnings are gifts to my dearest friends and family members.
    This is the fourth oval lidded box, so for now the latest.
    This lidded box is smaller with the axis size 110x80 mm and a height of 55 mm.
    Cheers, Ad
