Dovetailed jewellery box with parquetry commission

This is a reproduction of a jewellery box which I made whilst in my first year of university. The box is made from cherry with parquetry (marquetry using only geometric shapes) patterns on the top and inners. The parquetry making process is fairly lengthy; I've tried to narrate the progress through still images placed into a slideshow which you can view below.




An inner shelf compartment with a transparent base is now being made to complete the commission.
