Moon Flowers Jewelry Box

A 2-drawer design made from a warm toned and highly grained Sapele hardwood, this box features a Madrone Burl top inset with a beautiful flower marquetry of Quilted Maple, Holly, and Bloodwood. The artist's signature on the bottom, felt feet, and drawer stops give this box an extra bit of quality and durability. The drawer inserts and top dividers are removable for rearranging into a completely custom space. This box measures 12 inches x 9 inches x 6 1/2 inches. "My passion for woodworking began as a child when I was inspired by watching my father make furniture for our home. When I joined the Boy Scouts, I read a book by Eric Sloane called "A Reverence for Wood." That book, in combination with my love for nature, gave me a deep appreciation for wood and trees. I've made many things throughout my life from wood, but boxes have remained my primary focus. When I was sixteen, I made a box from birch for my girlfriend and put a romantic note inside. An early teacher introduced me to the sliding dovetail which i use to this day on Heartwood's little Secret boxes. I soon discovered elaborate and exotic woods and so began my love affair. Woodworking has always been therapeutic for me. It kept me engaged during tumultuous school years and became something meaningful that involved my heart and my hands. The workshop in my parent's basement quickly became my favorite and most productive outlet. My love for the medium and the joy I receive form working with my hands continues to inspire me decades later". - Mike Fisher
