a christening box veneered with yew, a particular favourite of mine
This is a christening box veneered with yew, a particular favourite of mine, with detailing in boxwood, Mother-of-Pearl and Abalone and was made for the first child of a friend of mine. She now has Charlotte too and another box ordered for her. This was a project in my second book, 'Fine Decorative Boxes' published by Sterling in 1998.
