A box to take two packs of cards in maple veneered with a spectacular tiger stripe veneer that comes from the an Italian company specialising in producing a wide range of colourful and interesting interesting patterns in veneer form. These are created from real wood by a variety of pulping, dying, laminating and cutting operations.

There is a moulded edging around top and bottom in ebony which is integral to the functioning of the sliding lid. I eventually intend to do a version of this as part of the gift range although not to exactly this same design.
