Sapele/Cocobolo Curio Box

Sapele and Cocobolo

9 x 5 1/4 x 3 1/2
Price:
$250
Details:
Quarter sawn Sapele front, back and sides; Cocobolo lid panel and handle (custom - hand made) and corner splines, hand polished finish
Boards are cut from "quartered" sections of the log. The ray flecks that are revealed when quarter sawn, are a prize for many furniture craftsmen. These unique features are usually only displayed on a quarter sawn board. The board is also far more stable than a flat sawn board which reduces its tendancy to warp or twist.
