Mesquite Box – Natural Deep Red Color

Description

I turned this box and lid from a gnarly piece of very dry Mesquite.  I left some of the natural edge in various places around the piece. I hollowed and finished the inside. I also hollowed the lid, textured it and added gold embellishing wax to the textured area. I sanded the outside to a nice sheen and finished it with Howard Feed-N-Wax.  The box is 4 1/2″ tall, 3 5/8″ wide.
