Custom Jewellery Cabinet in Figured Maple

This Christmas I was commissioned to make a wall-hung jewellery cabinet for a client as a present for his wife. He came up with the idea because she had, as he put it, ”four or five jewellery boxes all over the place”. It was a delight to help in such a heartfelt project and I got to use of my favourite wood, our own BC figured maple. I had special bits left over from previous projects. They were small but too beautiful to discard, so the commission was a perfect fit between my client’s needs and my resources, and I didn’t waste (something my mother told me was a sin). He was absolutely delighted with the outcome, and I hope so too was his beloved.
