Wood Boxes
​
There really isn't much anything special about this box, except that I didn't want to cut it considering the price I paid for the wood, but it had to be done. Anyway. I really enjoyed working with this wood as every different type of wood has it's own smell when cut and sound when hit. So this Curly Ambrosia Maple, which some say is spalted Maple, but I also know it has the curls. I tend to believe Spalted and ambrosia are the same thing. Although the Ambrosia comes from a beetle while Spalted comes from the fungus that seeps in after the beetle has made a path. So Spalted would actually be Ambrosia and Spalted. This particular box measures 7 1/4" X 3 7/8 " X 1 1/2". However you may order one custom size or the same size you see here. This size hold most pens well, most pencils are too long for this box. You may want a lid or you may not, but you have the option. I currently don't have any pictures with this box and a lid. Also note that the box you would receive may not have the exact same patterns this box being displayed has. Although it would be sure to please.

Hamilton's Woodcraft Boxes are like many other boxes, but I like to use rare wood. Although I will use any wood that you request for any customized box. Boxes like the one displayed on this page an open box with no lid is about as basic as it gets. I make jewelry boxes simple and complex as you like and out of any wood you like. There doesn't seem to be much to a box, but all things seem to come in boxes, like gifts. Just a suggestion. A wood gift box might mean just a little bit more than a cardboard box. Ask about our wood gift boxes. As with all my other services I recommend that you read our policies and become familiar with how we operate. Thank you.
