My Grandson Lawson, who is 8 yrs. old informed me some time ago that he was nearly a teenager. As such he needed a box to put those things in that are precious to him now, but won't be played with when he reaches the magic age of 13. He wondered if Gramps would be able to make something for him to store those valuables.

I made this box from Basswood 10+ years, and had it sitting around waiting for a use!

For those of you who might not be aware of the method of decoration; it is called Chip Carving.

The bottom of the box is lined in blue leather.

The design for the bottom panel of the sides comes from the Netherlands and while being somewhat traditional is very old pattern.
I will have to continue in a reply thread. There is still the back side to show you.
