Turned Wooden Ash and best Sapele Keepsake Box

This turned box is made with an Ash body. The body gently curves inward with a turned bead running around the waist of the box. The grain pattern lightens the visual weight of the box. A ribbon-striped Sapele lid sits inside a shallow recess in the top with a Maple pull. A small maple button finishes off the underside of the lid. The box is finished with shellac and wax. The interior remains unfinished.

The box has a 5.75 inch exterior diameter and stands 5.75 inches tall with the pull. The interior of the box is 4.325 inches in diameter with 2.5 inches of interior best height.
