    Default looking for a box

    My longtime girlfriends jewelry box has recently been destroyed unfortunately, and I would like to hire a skilled woodworker to make a new one.

    What I want is a jewelry box that has hidden compartment/s. In looking around I've found some online that I could buy but there all the same and I wanted one that was rather unique. I found https://www.woodworkforums.com/f87/an...ry-box-128445/ on this site, but the compartments aren't very "hidden".

    I also found Jewelry Box with Hidden Compartment - by Chips @ LumberJocks.com ~ woodworking community on another site and think this is amazing, but for my purposes the decoration on top would be a little overdone.

    i Also found Walnut Zebrawood Padauk and Purpleheart by EdelmansWoodDesigns which seems pretty cool aswell

    I want it done in a nice dark wood.

    I'll probably be putting a little love note in the hidden compartment and seeing how long it takes her to find it . As for the "main" compartment I'll probably be putting a diamond ring in it if you know what I mean.
    Thanks,

    any replies can either be here or to my email: [email protected]

    PS. To be honest, I'm not sure how much this will cost so any help on that subject would be great aswell.

    Do we get to see a WIP of this box being built?
    Sounds like it'll be a beauty.

    Happy to put it up as a WIP once we've finalised a design.
