This tea caddy was made as a contemporary
version of a traditional tea caddy. I did this box a while
ago now and I haven't done anything so uncompromisingly colourful
for a long time - it would be fun to do something like this
again.
The harlequin design is made up from individual
diamonds of dyed veneers. These are first made into multi-coloured
strips with a thin sliver of black veneer in between each.
Then the trimmed strips are joined, again with the black veneer
between, to form complete sheets before veneering onto the
shaped box.
