Exotic Wood Boxes

If you are like me, I take off my wedding ring before I get into the shower.  I take off my necklace before I crawl into bed. (This is Angela writing by the way not Andrew).  Many times I would just throw my jewelry onto the counter... risky.  Who knows what could happen!  If that baby falls down the sink that is going to be one expensive drop!  You know I will tear that sink apart before I accept that loss!  Luckily Andrew has solved my problem.  It is simple really.  Two words... Jewelry box.  

I am not talking about one of those cheap plastic boxes or one that my great grandma bought me for Christmas (pink floral print).  I am talking about a one of a kind exotic wood jewelry box.  A box that people walk by and ask, "What is that?! It is beautiful!".  A box that is the only one of its kind.  Literally.  The beauty of having a hand crafted jewelry box is more than skin deep.  It is an amazing thing to know that you are the ONLY person that has a box that looks exactly like it.  When Andrew hand crafts these boxes, each piece of wood is completely unique.  He doesn't make the wood fit some image in his head, the wood takes on its own shape.

These wood boxes are not only jewelry boxes.  They are a piece of living art.  They can be used for whatever you want to use them for.  You can put paperclips in the drawers if that's what you're in to.

Check out our featured items below. We have three Buckeye Burl boxes and one Poplar Burl box. Stop by California Fruitwoods on Hwy 63 North of Target and the Riverview Sports Park to check out even more exotic wood boxes.  Also check out the California Fruitwoods Facebook page to see what other projects Andrew is working on!  Until next time friends!
