Very nice ! What did you finish the color wood with ? Whatever you used makes the red and green really stand out. I like it.

Thanks...I normally use Mylands sanding sealer, but on this dyed & laminated Colorwood, the boxes were finished on the lathe with "Dr. Kirk's Scratch FREEE Woodturners Polishing Wax", followed with a Beall buff. The polishing wax does seem to bring out bright colors more than other finishes I've used.
