Treasure Box - Series #2 - Post #7

Some of you reminded me I should keep updating this blog on those treasure boxes.

I had to look where I left it last time.

So since then I started working on the box itself.

I veneered, the inside bird and the inside of the box. The full blind dovetails where already made by Patrick Edwards.

I want to have the inside done before veneering the marquetry on the sides. I started anyway on those sides. I cut every pieces for three of them, except the greens as we are still experimenting on turning the bone veneer green.

Next one to do alongside with the green pieces

Here are couple close shot, I just love them

We have laid again the veneer packs and Patrick is ready to choose the palette for the top.

Suite au prochain épisode…
