A box for the things worth keeping: watches, jewelry, cigars, letters, keepsakes.
The wood. Each box is built by Denton wood artist Jim Burton from straight-grained cherry or walnut, with hand-cut dovetail joinery in a Shaker-style design. The hinges are solid cast brass, patinated by hand, and the bottom is fastened with traditional cut brads. The finish is tung oil and beeswax, food safe, and can be renewed every few years. The liner is unfinished Spanish cedar, which has a light, clean scent and helps control humidity.
The leather. The lid panel is 8 oz Hermann Oak leather, hand tooled in our shop with a traditional saddle-style floral pattern, then oiled, dyed and conditioned.
The hardware. The leather is fastened with 1/2" brass escutcheon pins, and the conchos are engraved sterling silver from Oklahoma.
Shipping & Returns
Made-To-Order: Most of what we sell is made to order by hand, so each item shows its own lead time near the price. We do not start the clock until your order comes in, and we will not rush a piece just to ship it faster.
Orders over $300 ship free. Below that, a flat $10 shipping rate is shown at checkout, so there are no surprises. Desk mats and other oversized pieces always ship at a calculated rate, because their size and weight make free shipping unworkable on our end. Need something by a date? Tell us before you order and we will be straight about whether we can hit it.
Returns: in stock goods can be returned or exchanged within 30 days. Made to order, custom, and personalized pieces, including monogrammed items, are final sale and cannot be refunded, since they are built for you and cannot go back on the shelf.
