Thank you Gift Ideas
With a body in red meranti, the obvious main feature is the 'Bargello' patterned lid. To create the effect, thin strips of various woods of varying width are first laminated together and then cross cut and offset to create the staggered wave pattern.
As shown: w400 x d240 x h140mm
Circa £200.

Naturally, an elegant wooden box is the sum of its parts and, we believe, a key feature is the finish. Now it's a matter of personal choice and opinion whether a lacquered French polish type look is preferable to a more natural finish; at BespokeCraft we tend towards the natural look but strive to achieve that silk feel to the wood.

Thistle measures approx' 60mm wide by 65mm height. |
Laser Engraving
For that completely unique and personal gift add handcarved letters and/or laser engraved pictures and text. A loose rule-of-thumb is that whatever a standard black 'n' white laser printer can print on paper a laser engraver can engrave on wood. Line art and text work particularly well. Colour and grain of wood effect the final result.
From £30 per surface (Text and/or picture).

Oak Treasure
Treasure box styles can be crafted in sizes to suit. To the left we have medium size boxes with the handmade hinges set over the lid (see below). The hinges can also be set under the lid. With the hinges set under the lid the full beauty and grain pattern of the lid is exposed albeit at the expense of some internal height. The internal base is lined with velvet or real leather. These medium size boxes do not have a sliding tray.
This style of box has clean lines. Dovetail joints make for very strong construction. Shown crafted from 20mm thick oak.
As shown circa w360 x d210 x h160mm.
Circa £150 without sliding trays.
