Had a quiet summer in the workshop - got some other jobs done etc - but this was a 'commission' from someone who let us stay with them in their holiday home
So she wanted a jewellery box similar to some of the previous boxes I made except it had to be in a light wood (I offered holly or sycamore and we agreed on sycamore). Then her family 'motto' is a pineapple so she wanted a pineapple inlay on top. Then she did not want anymore fancy inlaying but did want the 3 layers defined so I suggested a very thin walnut rebate below each level.
Finally I thought it would look better tapered rather than spuare so it sort of looks a bit like a pineapple too
Photos below - thanks for looking EDITED TO PUT IMAGES IN
