Anna asked me if Matt could make a jewellery box that was shaped like a pirate chest, for her daughter's birthday in November. She wanted to have some little secret compartments in it so Matt has designed this box which is made from cedar.
The lid lifts to reveal 2 trays that swing out and are attached to another larger tray. This whole thing lifts out to reveal another compartment underneath.
Then the drawer at the bottom is large enough to hold all her little keepsakes. The trays and drawer will be lined with royal blue felt and the box is finished with brass trim. As at the date of this post, he is still finishing off outside of the box to make sure it is smooth and the finish is nice and glossy. Plus Anna has asked that he engrave her daughter's name on the bottom. I need to check spelling with her first but this will be done.
It will be ready for Anna to take home in about a week. I hope her little girl just loves it.
