Crafted like a piece of fine furniture, this is an elegantly styled bent wood box, with beautiful, graceful lines and rich color. This box has been entirely constructed with Pennsylvania black cherry emphasizing the beautiful grain and color of the wood. It has been steam bent and fastened together with the traditional wood laces that were first used by Norwegian and Swedish artisans. The cherry has a rich red-brown color that continues to darken with age. The corner posts are cut in a simple oval design that is inset with four solid stone polished cabochons in a deep shade of blue-green. The lid snaps down tightly onto the corner posts, giving this type of box the nickname “snap box.” It is a beautiful interpretation of the traditional Norwegian , Swedish, or Scandinavian, tine.
The box measures about 8 inches long and about 4 3/4 inches wide. The total height is 5 3/4 inches, with the body of the box standing 3 inches tall. The wood has been finished with a Danish oil, then protected with several coats of a polyurethane/oil finish, and finally hand-rubbed with high quality wax.
