The box is made from Silky Oak and I have used some 2mm square brass to inlay some features in the lid. The brass is supposedly Dead Soft and does bend relatively easily. I made a jig to get the correct bend for half a heart and then these were fitted into the already engraved lid. Super glue was used with the assembly and then the lid was put through a drum sander to get the lid assembly flat.
The stringing is Ash and the box is lined with a blue suede leather.
