The box is absolutely beautiful! Bruce is lovely to work with. He was able to listen to what I wanted then was able to use his expertise to create a very striking memorial box for my dog's ashes. From exotic wood selection to size dimensions, Bruce guided us through the best looking options and was honest and direct when we were leaning towards things that wouldn't look good. I appreciate how easy it was to trust Bruce's aesthetic style and talent rather than having to research and worry about every detail myself. I've had bad past experiences with people who depended on me, the novice customer, to make every decision and it was quite stressful. Bruce is a professional and he was able to interpret my vision into a work of art to remember a very special member of our family. Thank you!
Another Asian influenced box, this time using a totally different type of wood that just so happens to come from Asia.
Black Palm isn't really a wood, it's a grass, and has all the properties of compressed grass. It comes from a palm tree indigenous to South East Asia, mainly Myanmar (Burma). The wood is extremely difficult to work with as it splinters easily until finished. Hard to work with, but the end result is worth it.
The other woods are: Black & White Ebony, Holly and Maple
The stringing is holly and is purely decorative; the center ornament is a dice of a red dragon from a roll playing game.
To offset the rough texture, this box needed two coats of urethane, 7 coats of hand rubbed oil and three coats of English wax.
The size is 10.5" x 6" x 4.5"
